Thanks Paula, was to lazy to go downstairs and look. Been canning apple pie filling all day, feet hurt and think everything else does too! My bed is calling.....

Jaba, mom has both Paula's and yours .... I have Brat's and sending mom's to kelly tomorrow. I already know what I am doing with Brat's. What do you all think of piano keys and then something special in the corners like maybe a 12 patch or something. The colors I would use are the creams, reds and blues you have in the top. I would use more of the creams and reds as there is a lot of blues on the border mom put on. What do you think?

Do you have a pic? don't think I've seen your Mom's border on it. Love to see the pictures

Jaba, I thought I had posted a picture but I guess that I didn't. So here is the borders around it.

jaba

I must have misunderstood you, I've seen this one, I thought you meant your Mom had put a border on brat's and I hadn't seen it. It's got to be called a Round Robin for a reason, I feel like I'm going round and round. Think the garden and all the stuff that needs done from day to day and then the canning and freezing....guess my head is going round and round. Sorry for the error

oh Jaba it's ok I didn't mind posting again and honestly we are in so many different swaps its hard to keep track of what is what on some days.
Speaking of Brat's top, what do you think about piano keys in predominantly reds and tans with just a few blues in there. I know my border is supposed to be 6.5" so I was thinking of making them either 1/2" or 1" finished keys. Then I just need to think of some corner stones of some type. I pulled 20 different fabrics tonight that can work....hmmmm sometimes I don't trust my own judgement. Suggestions??

for the corners - what about doing what she did in the corners of her center star? I think they call that a "Puss in the Corner"

Had to go back and find the pic of Brat's, think piano keys would look great. If you use the same corner stones as Brat did in the middle to tie it all together then I think I would make the "keys" the same width as the small squares in each corner of them. Does that make sense?
