Quilt #11

Another successful day at open sew yesterday.  I was able to complete quilt top #11.  It would have been easier had I read the directions.....but I didn't so I had to improvise.  Seems like I have been doing a lot of that lately.  I'm standing by the story that it will just give the quilt some additional character :-).

The fabric in the outer border has been sitting in my closet for at least 5 years, the solid black border was left over fabric from a quilt that I made for my son Mat last year ( he only had to wait for a year for me to make that quilt.)  The inner border is where I had to improvise,  I had to put little spacers on the top and bottom on the ends because the body of my quilt measured 41 inches instead of 40.

Even with its imperfections, I'm sure the quilt will provide someone with warmth and comfort.....and that is really all that is important.

Until my next post....
