Border #2 and done!

Woohooo! Yup..I am much happier with the plain borders. I am a sucker for a dark narrow border and then a second border. Never noticed that until now. I guess I like how the darker inner border frames the center. Anywho..here is the pic. Obviously I didn't get it written down yet, but I PROMISE to have that on here this week!If you click on the pic, you can get a little closer view of it.


Hannah is the happy recipient of this quilt..soon as I get it quilted that is! She picked out the blue fabric ages ago for me to use in her quilt. She really, really loves it!

    I love the borders, I don't think they can be any better. I, too, spent the better part of an hour ripping ( the border), but finally got the Turning Twenty top completed.

    Turned out great. I too love a dark inner border .... give the eye a place to rest esepcially when using lots of fabrics. Wonderful job.

    great job, I see too many borders that are more work then the quilt center. I perfer simple lines- This looks like a fun project to do in scraps. I will add to my TO-DO list. cw

    I love the way the border frames it; contains it. It looks great. Hope your head is better, I crashed heads with my dog (a bone-headed-literally-border collie)last week and my nose is still a bit sore. Take care.
