Closer to a Finish

 Not quite a finish yet, but getting closer. All the piecing seams are sewn, now I just need to add the borders. 


I need to square it up before I measure for borders, and I'm going to need to spread it out on the floor and get my husband's help to do so. Hopefully we can do that soon, although he has plans for working in the yard this weekend. 

The side borders will add a lot more background/negative space, and bring the total width to 96". I also plan to add narrow 2" borders to the top and bottom, across all those vertical seams, to contain them. The finished height will also be 96". 

So, not quite a finish, but certainly getting closer.

  3. Love the colors! That deep green background really makes the rest of the design shine. Hopefully you can get the squaring up done and move on to those borders.
