It came out beautifully! I like the border. It has personality!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the way you improvised!!! Don't think I ever would've thought to do that!! I have some blocks for you--trying to decide if I'll do more or just send the few I made. You never stop!!!
ReplyDeleteBoy do I agree with your wish for backings to fall from heaven! What a gorgeous quilt! I love, love, love your border.
ReplyDeleteI love it!
ReplyDeleteLove your version of Orca Bay! Those borders are really fun, that's a great way to finish it off. I just finished one of Bonnie's mystery quilts. They are fun to make, but even making 2/3 of the blocks, it was still a huge quilt.
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI like the improvised version better!!!
ReplyDeleteSent you 25 blocks with a note. I'll make more since I'm hooked on them.
Hope the fire is out.

Such a beautiful quilt! The border is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI always knew you were a biker chic at heart! WAY to GO on Orca Bay! You can do it! You can do it! Just imagine me with pom poms doing a cartwheel......well, maybe not.........but, you still CAN DO IT!
ReplyDeleteI think it looks great. Backings are my LEAST favorite part of the process. I like sewing my label into the quilt but then it's another step. But - as usual when things take a bit longer - I love the finished product and it's always worth it. Keep going - the end is in sight!
ReplyDeleteI love the way you did the border...good thing you ran out of the thingies. Maybe you could have your gang help with the back...ha,ha. (I know I wouldn't let my gang help me.) They do look great though. L
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the flimsy - I love the way you handled the lack of triangle things!!
ReplyDeleteStunning quilt and i love the border.
