There are a couple of spots that stand out a bit much, but they'll be toned down by the quilting - undoubtedly gonna be fans. I'm thrilled that the border looks as good as it does. I managed to cut one of the border strips a 1/2" too short and another one was wonky as well. But I made it thru by the skin of my teeth. Now I just wish I had several more yards of this fabric to make something else with.I had a little "help" today:
It's almost 6pm and I haven't made dinner yet. Gotta go and be good. Later.
It's excellent! Really, really like it. I think maybe you are the too close to it?? Because I don't see anything jumping out! I love all the colors and the movement, especially the piece right beside SweetPea. That piece is so pretty. It's perfect! *VBG* Way to go!
ReplyDeleteIt is wonderful, the border fabric went perfectly with it. You are soooo talented, I am still waiting on that book!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see Space for Rent!
And it's so nice to have help pressing that seam flat there... (bottom picture) lol
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful blue eyes!
This top looks great! I, too, often use the narrow dark inner border to set off the center block section. It worked nicely here.
ReplyDeleteI love it, Ton! And look at the blue eyes on that cat.
