I'm in the process of quilting the borders of On Ringo Lake. I decided on loops for the small inner border. I felt swirls would be a good choice for the outer border.
I was going to change the thread to black for the inner border. But I decided to take the risk and keep the thread the same grey I had used throughout the quilt. I think it was more laziness on my part as opposed to risk taking! Anyways, I think it came out fine.
This is just a closeup of the border quilting. I have 3 sides left to quilt! I can't believe it's almost done! I'm already thinking about the binding. Happy dance!!
Looks wonderful
