Look what I unearthed (well actually un-boxed). Got 4 more boxes from under the house. This was one of them. There was some other fabric in the box, but this is the mystery. I have the book, I have my directions, but there are cryptic notes, and diagrams that don't match the book. I have to go back in time--way back, to try to figure out what the heck I was thinking!
I wonder if it will ever get done? I think I was going to make a king size quilt, but I don't know if I want this on my bed. My room is now in blues and greens--I don't think this would go too well. Maybe I need to bring it into the bedroom in the light and see what it looks like. It might be like a field of flowers--who knows.
The border above is kind of what is called for in the pattern. It seems I am constitutionally unable to follow a pattern exactly.
However, when I looked at the first one, the print border just seemed too "there". I thought, perhaps with some of the blue (but I really like that narrow strip of green~oh, well keep that in then). I ended up with the border above and I like it lots. The inner green is going to be about 3/4" to 1" (I think it might need to be 3/4". The blue is about 2" and the print border about 3"-4". I'll need to play with the widths a bit, but I like the look...a lot.
