Anyway, back to our quilt, already in progress... Basically two more big swatches of the dark blue with orange birds were added top and bottom, then the little gold/orange flowers on the blue plus various 9-patches were worked in as a border on all four sides... more Escher-y-ness due to the border 9-patches using the little gold/orange flower fabric so there's a kind of optical illusion when you see it in person.
Feast your eyes:
It's a little hard to get an overall shot of it in my room now, it's so big. Here's a good detail of the border tho.
Another corner plus border. :)
Bottom left border/corner.
Overall effect. I really need a good idea how to get a full shot of it when I'm done quilting and everything... Please submit ideas to the comments link :)
Lucy showing how well camouflaged she is... (Oh, and for the record, that is my only stuffed animal. I am NOT one of these grown women who still cover their rooms with toys [and no offense if you ARE]. Smokey has been with me since I was 2 or 3 so he has earned a permanent spot in my room.)
NEXT QUILT REPORT

You can photograph it on my bed!
Okay, you probably don't want to do that. I think colors are best shown in daylight - maybe take it to a park?
By the way - blogger wouldn't let me comment yesterday. Harland said about your parents story that a) you look like your mom b) what a nice story and c) he can hardly wait for the cockrach/shotgun story.
total boy.
The quilt is turning out quite beautiful. Kudos to you! That is a talent I certainly don't have!
The anniversary story was very enjoyable. I am a sucker for love stories like that.
Cheers!
Woo Hoo!
Tagged ya.
Thank me later. :)
