I started with this. I liked it, thought it was done. So I quilted it and put the binding on and brought it to my niece for her approval. I let her choose among three quilts. She liked this one the best (yay!) but deemed it too small. SIGH. Since I've made her wait two years for her "graduation" quilt, I decided to accommodate her wishes.
Here is what I have come up with so far:
I removed the binding and added two more borders - another light green and the pink floral. I'm thinking these HSTs are just what it needs to make it big enough.
I have my week all laid out before me. Hop over to Judy's so see what's on other design walls.
OMIgosh, really? That was awfully generous of you to undertake a major redo! That niece is one lucky girl. Love the new plan and hope it comes together quickly!
ReplyDeleteWow! You must really like this niece!! I love the effect of the HSTs
ReplyDeleteHi, Chris. Lucky niece! Those additional borders really add to an already gorgeous quilt. The greens and muted reds are so pleasing.
