borders are on

I like it!! And it looks like it could be a nice sized lap quilt too. Just the thing to have for over the shoulders or knees and such.

Oh, I love them Kathyl! The colours are perfect; and I so like the device of using two fabrics per border in the way that you have. I have tried this a couple of times and the effect pleases me every time I look at them. The whole quilt, as it is now, is just terrific. . In message , KJ writes

Yes, it's finished, and it's lovely. You did a great job on the borders, even without our help!

I absolutely LOVE this quilt! I'd like to try something like it myself...the ovals are so different! I like the borders, myself. Wonderful job!

Good try! That's the beauty of tops...they fold nicely!

Looks great Kathyl!!!

I love your borders!! They are the perfect finishing touch!!

It just gets better and better. Very good choice for borders!

Kathyl, I don't blame you for jumping right in. In fact, your jump landed you smack dab on the mark! Wow! I love the way you did those borders! The contrast of warm-cool on different sides plays off of the colors of the circles and their backgrounds and couldn't be better, IMHO. Congratulations! How're you going to quilt it? ;)

I love it KJ! When will it be arriving at my house???

I may quilt it similar to the one from QNM. That one has quilting in the block ditches, then in the ditch around the oval and then echoed once out from the oval. The interesting part was the quilting/embellishment in the ovals. They have two diagonally oriented (ie., angled) lines across them with some being done in embroidery floss and some have beaded lines. Might be interesting. I was just looking at my bead collection....it looks a little limited for this....so....more shopping!

Kathyl-

You truly outdid yourself- those borders are soooo perfect! They set off the blocks so nicely and your fabric choices are inspired! WOW!!!!! I'm totaly impressed and really love the top! GREAT job!
