Progress on UFO quilt.
Last week at the Quilt Shop UFO workshop, Leanne and I played around with my completed blocks until we agreed on a layout. Then we discussed how I could do the borders. I took photos with my Ipad but can't post them here (computer illiterate after 15 years, lol) so I took some photos at home once I had sewn all the blocks together and added the first border. I am restricting myself to only using the fabrics that were in the bag when I found the makings of this quilt. I had enough of the small print burgundy/green fabric to use for the first border. Leanne suggested I used all the half square triangles to make the second border, as I had already sewn them into 2 inch squares. But I doubt if there will be enough to go all around the quilt, so I will just add them to the top and bottom. The third border will be the plain green, as I have enough of that to do the backing as well. The binding will be in a small length of burgundy which was in the bag and probably intended for binding anyway.
