As it turns out, the blocks were the easy part! This is one of the most challenging borders I have ever done. I had lots of help!
Once I saw that the sawtooth border did indeed fit, I could relax a little.
Ta da!
Now that it’s finished, I have been rambling around the house feeling a little lost! So I worked on the blocks from Barbara Brackman’s Grandmother’s Choice.
Til next time….

So glad to be done!! Bruin is such a help to me!!
Your quilt top is absolutely gorgeous! I can’t believe how much the border adds to it. Congrats on getting that to come out well–so nervewracking at times. I had to laugh about the ‘feeling lost’. So true after you’ve been wrapped up in a project for awhile!
So so pretty Kerri! You have inspired me to prep some appliqué with starch…may I link up to your blog as I post about it?
I would be thrilled! Just give yourself time to get used to this new method. I always iron 2 layers of freezer paper together to make the template a bit thicker. Good luck! P.S. If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact me!
