I finished stitching the second border of Civil War Bride this morning. After I washed it, I trimmed it, just like the last border.
Here are some close-up pictures.
And here is the whole border!
Til next time….

Love the fabric you used for the butterfly’s., all of it is gorgeous!
Thanks so much!
You do very nice work! And I bet you’ll finish it, too! It’s beautiful, are you sharing in real time?
Thank you for the lovely comment. Yes I am sharing in real time. I am not organized enough to have post done ahead of time!
Lovely borders for your beautiful quilt!
Thanks!
You are really moving along with this! Gorgeous border work–love all the detail!
Thanks, Audrey. I am moving along quickly! I have so many more quilts of my “To Do List”!
So beautiful! Just love it.
Thanks!
Simply amazing. All those colors, fabrics, little pieces. Your workmanship is wonderful.
Thanks so much!
all those birds sure set off all the leaves!
Thanks! Yes…lots of leaves!
So beautiful! I’m interested that you wash each piece before attaching. Do you wash after it’s finished too?
I wash each block (or border strip) as I finish it. I do this to wash all of the glue and starch and marking pen out of the block. I pre-wash all
of my fabric before I start the block, so that the colours do not run at this stage. I only wash the finished quilt if really necessary. Hope this helps!
de una belleza increible eres fantastica
