Just finished my second one. Going to quilt it tomorrow and add red binding. So much better than the first one. I may go back and change the cornerstones to green. I am happy with how it turned out. Thank you for hosting this!

QueenBarbie, I like how you made it square, using the Tipsy Triangles on all sides.

Very pretty Leah...have you decided how you’re going to quilt it yet? Mine has been loaded on on the LA for 3 days now and I am undecided on how to quilt it.

I have enough of E-2 to use it as the 6.5” outer border instead. I’m trying to decide. Here is a photo of where I am at this point.
So pretty Blueridgebeverely! I saw a quilt on Facebook which used one of the solids for the outside border and It was gorgeous! If you decide to go that way, I think it will look awesome!

I agree with Givio. If I make it again, I will do that too. Very nice addition.
