Notice the difference the lighting has on the photos from the ones taken just now (6:50 p.m.) to those taken about two hours earlier when natural light was streaming through the windows and doors.
By the way, this is not a bed quilt. It’s going to be about 62″ x 76″. There will be an additional outer brown border.
What do you think? Thanks Donna for the idea. I wasn’t thinking I could turn just one border differently.
Dinner is ready to come out of the oven and Vince is probably about ready to come and get me to see dinner isn’t already on the table. I’ll eat and be back over here to finish this quilt tonight .. so I can start on the March Color Palette Challenge.

I love, love, love it! Can I make one? It would just be for me?
Donna in KS says
You are so welcome! That is really a great quilt!
Barbara says
Top and bottom borders are perfect. I might rethink the sides and see if something else worked better. They overwhelm me a bit.
pdudgeon says
yep, looks good to me!
now go get some dinner and relax. the quilt will still be there waiting for you in the morning, and you’ll be relaxed and refreshed and ready to tackle it.
Kathleen says
Didn’t you just buy the fabric? You work fast!
Debbie in Alaska says

Makes me glad I read this post before replying to the other – this is what I was trying to figure out how to describe. Great minds, as they say…LOL
Angie says
Absolutely Wonderful! You say it’s not a bed quilt—but, you never know what the person who gets it will use it for. I think it’s just great the way you have the borders.
You have been busy, busy. Maybe Vince could fix you a plate and come out to the sewing studio for dinner?—just a thought.

Cool quilt Judy! I like the borders and I think you must piece at about 100/mph to get so much done ;O
Leslie says
Hi Judy! This is freaken’ awesome! I think it will be perfect for your donation! I think the stripped border is perfect for the inside body of the quilt!
62 inches is wide enough for a full or double bed, or for someone to cuddle up in!
Wonderful quilt!
Take care, Leslie
Dar says
PERFECT!! Looks right.
Vivian oaks says
Even though it’s not a bed quilt, that’s still exactly how I’d put the borders. I agree absolutely!!
Diane S. says
Excellent! LOVE it!!
Karla says
Judy it looks terrific, I bought a panel also and am thinking about making something similiar, maybe with blues and reds in the borders. hmmm…
Erin says
