SAHRR Border 4 Showing My Curves

This week we were prompted by Wendy, at Pieceful Thoughts, to "show off our curves". Curves in my borders and arranging them in creative play has filled my week. Although challenging; both by getting them done by the deadline and designing to make them fit, this week's prompt has been great fun! So let me introduce my curve appeal result.

It is now measuring 62" and we have 2 more weeks to go. Looks like a full size quilt is in my future. No complaints. It just takes longer to finish them because I send them out to my long arm quilter. 

I am learning also, that if you do not like sewing on borders, then this round robin is NOT a project for you.  

 

Sewing the curves gets easier with the more you do. A great motivator to keep going!

 

I had to make small 1" spacers in each row because they were just a bit short in length. 

I am really happy with the secondary design that is showing in the white inside area between borders. I am wondering how I will pull off the next step in this round robin.

And I sure am hoping I do not run out of fabric before this ends. I have a discard pile that is growing from blocks and leftovers that I did not use. This is an example of how our scraps multiply. Have you found this to be the case in your sewing room also?

 

Our parade of quilts will be March 25th. Does that include quilting and binding also? If so...as Cary Grant would say, "I'm cooked". 

And let me add, I so appreciate your comments. I am trying to keep up corresponding and visiting everyone's postings too. I have been so inspired by your talents! 

Happy stitching!
