OOH I just took the whole journey through your quilt and I just love it. I think the scrappy border look great too. You are very talented to be able to sew your vision like that. My best wishes for your sister and hope she is doing well.

Ok, here is a not so good photo with a bit of the scrappy border. Also, the striped binding I was planning to use, and a bit of the red that some suggested. I have some royal blue, too, that I could use for the binding. I might like that better than the red. Hmmm. What do you think now that you can see the scrappy?

My sister-in-law, who has also been quite ill with a hernia repair gone very bad is finally being released from the hospital after being in there for a month. She has asked me to come stay with her for a while, so I will be away from my computer for the next week. I will be able to check in on hers I think, and I am taking the quilt to finish while I am there. You are right Jan, my sister needs it asap. My DSIL has an embroidery machine so I think I will take advantage of that and use it for making my label. Maybe.. I'll see. I kinda like sewing them by hand.
