Everybody has done such a great job!!!!
I never did finish mine. Thought I was going to loose my sanity getting all those little blocks to turn out right. Shipped all the triangles to the Kids Club and used the string blocks for Relay for Life fundraiser and resign myself to EASY patterns!! LOL

My Orca Bay top is now back on the design wall and I will be sewing the borders on this evening. Bought the batting today and will begin FMQ tomorrow. I figure that this is such a busy quilt that even the Quilt Police will not see my mistakes.

Krista--that is gorgeous. The color combination and the way you handled the borders are perfect.
Coyotemagic, I'm with you. I've been repurposing all the pieces I cut for other projects. It's just to much work for a pattern I don't love the finished product of. I do love seeing the pictures of everybody else's hard work though.

Krista, love your colors and your borders. I'm still struggling along. Had a cold for 2 weeks and stopped working on it. Then I discovered I had made major errors on the black blocks so had to rip them all out and redo them. I will eventually finish it but in a smaller version. May steal your border idea, really like it. Congratulations on finishing your beautiful quilt.
