Week 4 link up is ................. here at Anja Quilts. you have until Sunday to link up this week.
I struggled with my Round 4 today. I had all the flying geese cut and ready for assembly. My goal was to get this Round 4 finished today. I have other deadlines to complete this upcoming week.
So at the end of Round 3, my top was 1/2 inch shy in each direction. I made 46 flying geese to finish at 2 x 4 inches. I added a 2 inch top strip to each border to make it a 4 inch finished round. This brings my top to 48 x 60 inches now. I struggled all afternoon to get the newly added borders to fit nicely on round 3. I should have taken in larger seams on the new round but had my mind set to bring it to a proper 48 x 60.
Remember in the beginning I said it would have to be a miniature? Ha, best laid plans of mice and men.
I am liking this quilt anyway and I think it will find a nice home when its done. These challenges always bring the best out of me.

ReplyDeleteLOVE how you brought the rusty orange out to this round, Kat! You could stop right here and the quilt top would "read" as finished. I'll be interested to see how you work the coming rounds into your growing quilt.
ReplyDeleteThose flying geese make a beautiful border, Kat! I continue to love your design and color combinations. No matter what size, this is going to be a beautiful quilt!
