Here are all my blocks for Green Tea and Sweet Beans! They're finally all done! You will see gaps between some of the blocks. I will be adding 1 inch checkerboard fillers to make all the blocks fit. I'm going to take out my design wall and make sure I like how all the blocks are placed. I like to live with the arrangement for a little while. It's surprising the little things you notice if you just give yourself the time.
I ran a few errands this morning. When I got home, I started these little pinwheels. They measure 4.5 inches square. I wasn't sure I could get all 9 blocks made today but I did! I did some chain piecing and that saved me a lot of time.
This is the fabric I bought for the border. It's a very pale pink with muted multicolored polka dots. I will have to applique a vine with flowers all the way around the quilt. What a great way to finish a quilt! Will take awhile but should frame the quilt so nicely!
Oh this will be so lovely, Rosemary--I really like the border you chose...hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteThank you, Julierose! I'm looking forward to seeing how this looks when it's done. There seems so much going on but I love it!
DeleteLooks great! Such happy colors! Betcha that border will get done before you know it. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Em! I did try to brighten up the quilt. Hope those borders are quick although I'll be surprised if they are!!
DeleteThis is turning out wonderful Rosemary!
