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.

Gorgeous Leah. I love the red and blue together.

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!

Love your colors and changes. So very pretty!

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