Pure Results

Uncertain about what border to add to my queen size quilt, I blogged about it (link) and got some great ideas. I really appreciate all the comments and suggestions.


While I've not yet decided if I'll use this as a bed or a extra large couch quilt, I decided the border was needed so it could be a bed quilt.  I added a narrow inner band of solid brown from my stash (finishes at 3/4 inch) and then an outer border of my favorite prints from the line (finishes at 3 inches).  


Isn't she a beauty?  I think the border helps frame the quilt nicely.  


And because my DH and DD held the quilt with only minor complaining, I have to include another picture in honor of my quilt models.


Fabric: Sweetwater Pure
Pattern: Schnibble Lincoln (with modifications)

All ready for my LAQ - now I just need to name the quilt!

Happy Stitching!
