That is one gorgeous quilt. The little blue border is interesting. Tell me about it.

Oh, and Welcome to the board from South Louisiana.

The "little" blue border is made of the left over strips from the Lone star. When I sewed everything together and cut my diamonds, I had cut too many, so I used them for the border. Kind of looks like the chasing lights from Christmas trees, electified! I try to use up whatever I can, but I will never use up all my stash.
Just went out and bought the Hoffman Challenge fabric and some companions! (Oy, was that fun!) :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
