Trip Around The 10-acre Wood

I just finished up this quilt, for a donation challenge that's part of my guild's upcoming show. It works like this: You buy 1 yard of selected fabric for $1 (I think there were 3 different fabrics, all disney-type prints). You make a small quilt using at least some of that fabric in the quilt. All these quilts are displayed during the show, and the visitors to the show vote for their favorite. The winner gets a prize, and all the quilts are donated to childrens wards in local hospitals, etc.

So, the print I bought had Winnie the Pooh and all his friends (I just love Tigger!), and here's what I came up with. I used the fabric itself for the borders.

Here's a closer up view of the fabric on the borders:

I never thought to quilt a solid border to look like piano keys. I'm going to have to use that idea. Lovely quilt for a great cause.
