Four Short Seams

That's all I got done at quilting yesterday. I was late to Paula's because of a commitment with the kids at church in the morning. When I got there I cut 6 and a half inch strips for the next border and I cut about 4 more than I needed. What a waste! Then I sewed border pieces together for each side of the quilt - four seams in all. I thought I measured carefully, but I discovered too late that I had cut the borders about 2 inches short!!! I carefully put everything away, sat by the fire and read some magazines. Maybe tomorrow I can look at the quilt again and decide what to do. There is no mistake that can't be corrected. The quilt will get finished, I'll love it, and it will be on our bed this summer.

Second Border

After the narrow plain border, I added a pieced border using the same squares that make up the body of the quilt. When I add another wide white border the top will be done.
