My monthly little quilt celebrates our golden anniversary which passed quietly. We're safe and healthy, so quiet is fine with us. I was looking for happy in my quilting so the sunshine yellow replaced a gold - there's a lot of happy in that yellow :) The center Wedding Ring block is 5". The inner border is 3/4", cause that's what I had. That dictated the hst at 1 5/8". That took the block to a scant 10". The Double Four outer border blocks are 2 1/2" which worked with a little easing. The quilt will finish at 15".
The outer border needs to be an even number of blocks to work.
And just for fun, a view of the back -
When I first saw this thistle weed, there was a huge bumblebee on the big flower. By the time I got back with my tablet, he was gone - but still a great picture of an eye-catching weed.
Have a great week! Stay safe and be happy.

Great border, and the color really brings out the center block. Happy Anniversary!

DeleteYou sure work tiny! I cut my fabric 1 1/2" for my smallest piecing. Beautifully done, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLaughing - not all my piecing is tiny. Seems to be a theme lately.
