Stunning design and colours...can't wait to see the finished result...I am "border challenged" so am learning a lot on this thread.

Your quilt is beautiful - you have given me an idea of what I can do with some FATS I have just hanging around in my stash - thanks.

With regards to the border remeber now that I am no expert however I think you should first add a plain border & then I would go with your HST blocks on the top row on the left.
Can't wait to see it finished. :wink:

Ninnie, i love your quilt. it is beautiful. I go with cutebuns on the boarder. Something plain first then a zig zag.
You sure did give us all a good idea for our scraps.

What a great scrappy quilt! I love how the colors pop against the white muslin! Looks pretty easy, too!

The center is completed now!I added one more row of 16" squares and it now measures 48" by 64". I am going to add a 6" border on all sides , so It will, when done measure 60" by 76". which I think will be fine for a lap quilt for the den.
Still thinking about designs for the border, but have a few written down, so still need help!

Each 16" block has what I consider pinning points, some quilters don't pin, but I am a ig believer in pinning.

Hi, Ninnie, just checked in to monitor your progress, and it's looking really good - I like the larger size, even though it was more work.

Very nice! :lol: I pin to match points, too; it's an obsession! :lol:
