I made that little windmill to try it within the HST's but I would have to take more care in the making if I choose this border, but it is certainly something I hadn't thought about. Thanks Lotti.

Nan I recently discovered this wonderful blog too. Look at her flying geese quilt posted today. Fabulous. I think what you are doing is really interesting.
I'd like to see that undulating border with just a small repeat of red. I'm thinking of puttiing an undulating border on my medallion quilt. But I haven't
started it yet so don't know if it will work like I imagine it. But anyway, this is wonderful what you've got here.

lotti OFFLINE Posts: 1893 Thank you received: 309	wow - what an impact i think the red waving geese could be really really good - i'm not sure if they will be strong enough in relation to the red inner border though - the one little windmill doesn't really show how much power it could have... love it

sengtser1 OFFLINE Posts: 62	This is my idea so far. The inspiration came from this website http://www.redpepperquilts.com/2011/01/charming-triangles-quilt.html I am not sure if it works - the centre should be trimmed a bit and I need to put some red into a border. I am thinking of a red border with a waving (undulating) flying geese. But the more I look at it the more I am not sure. Any thoughts? Nan in Scotland

Thank you received: 309

thank you - i should be doing so many other things
but... babies don't really need playquilts during the first couple of months of their lives, do they?

so i've continued to play with the HST's - not yet the final version - but very close to it - i think

it's now going to stand in my living/sewin room, while i do other things - i'll be moving things around quite a bit i think before i start sewing ?sometime soon?
but been good - actually made a whole butterfly for one of the two expected babies... now for the kittens
well - wait till the sun gets hidden behind those buildings - too nice to go inside
