It's finally time to share the border print I've chosen for the HOQH quilt top. I've cut it all out, but nothing is stitched in place - I really wanted to audition it before I got busy sewing, just in case I didn't much care for it.
As soon as I can find a few hours together, I'll be firing up the Bernina, because I'm supremely happy!
Please forgive the hurried photo, it was late at night and I was so anxious to see if it was going to work. Now the only other decision I'll have to make is what to use for binding.
My lovely friend Lizzy of Jacaranda Quilts has agreed to quilt it for me, and I could not be more thrilled, she does such lovely work. If I'm focused I'd like to have it in her hot little hands by the end of the week.
Things are a bit crazy here at the moment for various reasons, but I'm sure there will be stitching time, and then I can move on to the next UFO (or start something new) and get some more hand quilting done too. I'll check in again, hopefully with a finished quilt top - chatter soon!

J'aime beaucoup ta courtepointe et la bordure met ton ouvrage encore plus en valeur. Un grand bravo.
A bientôt avec un autre ouvrage...
That is a perfect border fabric.
The top and the border look like they where made for each other.
Dark Blue for the binding?
Perfect! Love it! Congratulations!
Beautiful border print, perfect!

You have made another heirloom! I love love that border - really makes the quilt! I ordered the pattern!!!!

I don't believe you could have chosen a more perfect border. It is stunning!
It is so perfect I cannot believe it. I'm sure someone asked, what fabric line is it and I'm sure it is from your stash. I am so WOWED. Unbelievable. Thank you for taking me on this journey. Love it.
Beautiful grand border! Congratulations on coming closer to a spectacular quilt.
