The result was that I managed to put my top together for miss Mary Brown.
I have ordered some more of one of the greens from Threadbear to add a small 1" border then I will add a plain border and a red saw tooth edge, that will point inwards. By the time I have finished the top it will measure pretty much the same as the original. I have booked it in for custom quilting and it is booked in for April next year as the quilter is so busy. I'm happy to wait.
Hopefully Okehampton can see some action now....... after I put the binding on a quilt for a friend.
Have already got something planned for the next project and a pattern should be arriving in the mail soon. I just can't seem to help myself! I think I need someone to organise an intervention.
May as well go for it while I'm on a creating high.
Here she is...
Feeling happy
Cheers
