Before I ever start sewing the borders, I make a handy dandy border border chart. Sometimes I do it as a table on the computer, cometimes I just scribble it out on a notepad.
Border Chart
Borders #1, #2, #3, #4, #5 and the sides of #6 are done. That means that the top and bottom for #6, all of #7 and all of #8 are waiting to be done. Those should be done today and the yardage for this quilt can be added to this week’s stash report.
New Beginnings
Nicole had better love this quilt! 🙂
marion morgan says
She will . . . it’s beautiful.
Debbie says
Of course she will! It is stunning.
Dawn says
she will LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!! who wouldnt????
my husband is always commenting on my quilty notes. “What is this?” “Do you have to make a note for everything?” LOL
great minds think alike I guess… 😉
Elaine says
Beautiful border and quilt too, I;m positive she will love it. One question, do you do the borders as one unit or do you add each border to the quilt? Thanks for sharing so much with us.
Laura Deaver says
Of course she will love it – it is absolutely beautiful!
Josie says
Notes and more notes that is how I work too.. my husband
will say didin’t they figure that out in the pattern.. as he sees the pattern laying there why do you not follow it.. and
my standard answer is “I never could walk a striaght line”
I like to make adjustments and changes LOL
Nicole will love love the quilt.!!!
Helene says
I know you have turned me down before, but if Nicole doesn’t like it, may I send you my address? A girl has to keep trying, ya know and I would give it a wonderful home. Sadly for me, I know Nicole is going to love it.

another note-maker here! i make notes on the pattern sheets as well as having extra sheets of notes to scribble anything that comes into my head while i’m making the quilt. As you said, even if there are directions for the quilt there’s always something else that i need to remember as i’m making it. Those notes have saved me from making many a mistake.
the quilt is looking really great!

What’s not to love? Beautiful quilt Judy. Isn’ t nice to create s thing of beauty forevee, increasing in beauty whether saved and savored or used, used used, washed and used again.
Lee says
If she doesn’t, you can call me Nicole and I’ll love it, lol. It’s beautiful!
Terri says
I keep a wire bound notebook that I write down figurings on quilts, drafts of blocks, etc. But I know if kept every scrap that I figured the math on it would make a pile that would reach to the ceiling!
That quilt is just so darn gorgeous! You have done yourself proud and Nicole will adore it.
Mary Jo says
Nicole will love that quilt! And like several others, if she doesn’t want it you can send it to me and call me Nicole or anything else you want to call me! The quilt is beautiful!
Cassandra says
Wow! It’s beautiful! I’m sure she’ll love it.
Helen Koenig1 says
I love it! Like Helene says – if she doesn’t may I have it? Only want to know – when will you be starting the one like that for ME?????
Peggyinno says
What’s not to love about this quilt! I think she will treasure it, but just in case she doesn’t, I’m sure there are plenty of takers out there, including ME!!
Wonderful quilt Judy!
Norma says
I vote to knit all weekend! Of course, I am in Missouri right now, where it is cold. Enjoy your weekend.
Jackie says
I’m willing to be adopted and will love the quilt if Nicole doesn’t love it.
Susan says
I don’t know how she couldn’t love it. You’ve put a lot of work into it. I don’t think I ever put 8 borders on a quilt. Maybe 5. You’ve gone way above excellence. =)
Carolyn Thomas says
Looks like you could raffle the quilt off, if Nicole doesn’t like it! It’s beautiful!
