The boarder really accents the whole quilt,lovely !!!

That is beautiful!

Wonderful quilt with a pretty pattern.

that is lovely !! is it for you? are you giving it away? Wonderful ! thanks for sharing !

I can see why you are saying, "Hurray". Nice job and what a lot of work. Thanks for sharing. :o)

I love it, the quilt is so beautiful and you did great work on it..How did you get the border like that? That is something I would love to try on a quilt..

This is a lovely quilt! Your own pattern! I wish I could design a pattern like you do! I love the boarder as well as all the applique. Did you hand stitch or machine stitch the applique?

I can see why you are glad to be done. That looks like a whole lot of work quilt and then to add a fussy border and binding it, it must have been a real struggle to complete. But, just look at the results. You have done a wonderful job on your quilt.

Beautiful!

A very beautiful work!

Very pretty!

Beautiful

Great quilt - lots of work and the best part is the love!

That is beautiful...I love how you did the border. I left my border zigzag on my first 9 patch set on point and it looks fabulous. Very unique...thanks for sharing.

Wow that is a beautiful quilt,

Beautiful quilt!

Beautiful quilt and the border is wonderful.

absolutely beautiful!

It's beautiful, was it hard to do the border and binding?

Its beautiful

So bright and pretty! Nice job!

Love the border! Great job on the applique too.

This is beautiful. Great quilt pattern. Great job. You're the only one seeing the mistakes...it looks great on the front and that is what other folks will see. :-)

Very pretty!

I am keeping this one!! I see you live in the Lake Erie area. Are in Michigan?

The basket and flowers are from a book by Marian Shenk called Block of the Month Basket of Flowers, but the border is mine. I wanted something different. It is a octagonal shape too with 3 sides--just to be different! :D I did the applique by machine but wished I did it by hand--that is ok it is done now!! Hurray!

No it really wasn't a struggle. The points on the border were not bad at all to do--easy really. My real struggle is free motion quilting. I am kind of sloppy with that no matter how careful I try to be. I will keep working on it though!

No not at all. It was fairly easy really.

Great quilt. I am almost finished with a quilt for my hubby. Just need to bind it.

You did a good job

That is wonderful

Very very beautiful. Love basket quilts and the border is just gorgeous.

I like the blue thread from the bobbin. It adds a bit of flair and personality! Well done!

I will look forward to seeing a picture.

Thank you for the compliments!!

Very nice, I love the outside border.

I love your beautiful flower basket quilt! The appliques are beautiful (I LOVE flowers...) and that border is just fantastic! Good job! :thumbup:

Well done!

I was thinking the exact same thing. Great work.

It's quite lovely.
