A quick update to let you all see that I have added my borders. I have cut my binding strips in the same colour as the outer border fabric.
I chose my inner border fabric to frame the blocks. I am a little worried that it may be a little too bold. Time is ticking away. Still need to layer, quilt and bind. I feel it is time to give up sleeping, cooking and cleaning until I finish the quilt!! I have enjoyed working on this project. Thank you Chookyblue.
P.S. Does it count that I am twelve hours behind Australia? It is still Wednesday 28th here!!

1st SAL.....Peg, Dale and I committed to stitching Anni Downs - A Gardener's Journal in March 2010. We have set the time frame as completed March 2011. I blogged about this on my blog thinking maybe one or 2 others may join us and lots of girls indicated an interest so I decided to start this blog where we can all encourage each other to meet the goals set along the way................
2nd SAL ......well so many of the girls wanted to continue on with another project and some new girls joined us and now approx 91 girls are stitching Natalie Bird's Tis the Season. March to Sept 2011
