Can you see how the 3" wide border was too much and took the focus off the center? Now it will connect better to the thin blue inner border and form a relationship - hahaha! No, I mean that seriously. There is a real connection now! Can you see the improvement>?

When I look at my cropped pic wo the muslin the center pops out more. Right now the red is distracting me a bit. What if you narrow your pieced border, add a muslin border the width of the last muslin border and then bind in the royal blue floral? hey I gotta go and get some bookwork done tonight yet. Will be anxious to see how your finish! G

I love seeing your work. You do things I'd never thought of. I enjoy watching the others work on here who love minis too.
I have Irfanview and have used it for things on my website but never thought to use it that way. thanks for the idea.

(grab and sew then cut up again any size pieces)... and given it "structure".... thank you so much.......i have a home sewing space that is like "the home for little wandering fabric pieces"... people know i can't bare to part or throw out... (just thru a bag in there not 1/2hr. ago from a buddy...LOL)... anywhooooooo
