My to do list from yesterday was a big ask, and I did manage to get all but two things done. The border for Montmellick remained untouched, as did the cupboard in the kitchen that contains all the random glasses. I still feel like I had a pretty productive day, so I'm not too sad about it :-)
The border fabric was calling to me this morning though, and I got busy at the sewing machine:
It looks pretty good - even with the missing appliqué elements. I'll get to those soon. I am definitely going to revisit that top border though - something is amok. It's too bumpy for my liking, and I'm thinking I may have messed up a measurement, or got the angle wrong on the mitre. It's definitely not staying like that!
Two other things I wanted to let you know about:
First up - for those of you that are interested (and because I've had so many requests) I've put a little tutorial on my website giving a some detail about how I make the spiderweb placements and table runners. The button in the right side menu bar will take you to the site, and then go to Free Patterns. Enjoy!
And secondly, don't forget that until the end of this month I have 50% discount at my Etsy Store for orders over $10.00AUD. I've put some more patterns there recently, so go check them out, and if you're interested, the promo code is: JAN15SALE. Enjoy, and a big thank you to all those who've placed orders so far :-)
That's it from me - chatter soon! xox

I really like it, I know what you mean about borders though and always hate it if they don't lay flat.
wow! what a beauty this top is - the detail is magnificent!
Your quilt top looks amazing, they always do!
I'm sure that with a little time you will have the border sorted to your liking.
I get the feeling this piece is coming to an end?
Montmellick is a stunner Tazz. You'll sort that border out and this quilt will be another piece of perfection you can add to your repertoire of stunning quilts. I have absolute faith in you.
Your Montmellick is amazing. So rich in colour and amazingly beautiful.

This is going to be a stunning quilt. I can only imagine the hours that you've put into creating it.
