Gosh, thanks for all the lovely comments. I spent about 3 weeks trying to find a perfect fabric for making the border appliqué. Bought about 6 different ones, but when I got them home didn't like any of them. The snowball blocks were borne of desperation, both because I couldn't find the perfect fabric and part of me was truly dreading having to do so much more raw edge appliqué. If I do next year's BOM it will all be turned-under appliqué even if it takes much longer.

Renata OFFLINE Posts: 2673 Thank you received: 260	So beautiful, Rita, and how perfect the snowball blocks! The colors in the border pick up all the fabrics in the quilt and it just comes together beautifully! I, too, am so sick of applique' that I'm doing a pieced border on my Christmas quilt. Was thinking about the letter "D" block repeated around, but I might just shamelessly copy your snowball border and get this puppy done for Christmas!
