Whoop! Whoop! 7.10.2020

I finished framing out my 16 patches. The gray frames towards the bottom blend with the white frames but I'm in a try to 'use the stash' mode.

Here it is with the frames. It ok but a little ho-hum and kinda well, drab.


So, I decided it needed a border. I thought the easiest would be to sew a few of my 2.5 inch strips together. Better, but not sure I'm sold on it! 





In the meantime, I'm linking up with:

I love how it is coming together!! I am thinking maybe one more border - Light Blue or the grey???? What a great way to use all those 16 patches!

I think your quilt top looks great and there is certainly something to be said about using what you have! Sorry that you don't think it feels "done." What about piano keys or 4-Patch blocks all around? I an in the process of adding such a border to one of my UFOs.

I like the way this looks. I agree with Alycia... another border might make it pop. But I do like it with and without the border. Great quilt top!
