    Thank you, Zozee... all in small bites! Having to wait a week between clues helped me get all the pieces done. Then after the 'reveal' all I had to do was put them together into the big blocks and sashings.

    KenmoreGal2, your bags came out really nice.

    Now I need to get sewing, so maybe can have more to show by the end of this long quilting weekend.

    I have the center of the top finished. It just needs borders. Any Suggestions?

    That's very pretty Mary. I would think any solid would make an excellent border.

    I'm chugging away making X blocks for the Color/Design challenge. Twelve done so far today.

    Thanks guys. This has been a very interesting journey, still have to finish the reconstruction phase of my "Dollies", but can't be any worse than what I have gone through so far.

    I am ready for the final border, just deciding on how wide it will be. Hope I have enough backing fabric. It may end up with some star blocks for filler. Will post a pic later when all the borders are on.

    I really like that! I agree any solid would do, but royal blue is what I see in my mind's eye.

    I agree that any solid especially a darker one would look great. Love this quilt!

    Looks like great minds think alike!

    Just got home from work, left as the next foot of snow started! Will be working at the machine for the next couple of days provided we don't lose power! Have to stitch one more skateboarder then move on to the next picture before prepping any more. Hope to get all of these stitched before I have to dig out and go back to work.
