    Slightly confused. I read different dates and then go back to where it said it all starts in Sept., next month.
    If that correct? I realize we do this on our own. However, after the Sat. morn. update, do we ever reveal what we have done, are doing, ect?
    This is my first time, so excuse me for being confused.

    I may be wrong, but this thread was for #19, which I believe has finished. Next one would be #20, don't know when that starts.

    If you can look back to post #492 in this thread you will see she plans to start #20 in mid-September. She usually opens a new thread about a week before so we can get ready!!! Hope this helps, Mariah.

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]601264[/ATTACH]Judy, what would you suggest for a 6inch border...the blue background fabric, light scrappy, or dark scrappy. Would love a 2nd opinion

    m-fay, I love what this turned into! Hmmm ... border. I don't think I would go scrappy, I think it would detract from the quilt. Love the darks in the HST that form the lattice. Do you have some of this? Maybe a sash at 1-1/2" wide of one of the dark fabrics and then a blue border, if that is what you like. I just mention blue because that was your first color in your posting. Just something to separate the border from the quilt.

    m-fay that's beautiful. I agree a narrow dark border with a wider blue one. Just to frame your work,not draw your eye away from it.

    Just a thought, m-fay. I really like the brown carpet the quilt is laying on. Any chance you would consider just a narrow binding of that medium rusty brown that picks up the colors in the quilt. Of course this may be all wrong because of colors, photos and how postings change our photos.

    Perhaps a narrow sashing of the background color then the brown binding.
