My OMG goal was to get the zig zag rows sewn together. As I added them into twosies and then joined those (there are ten colors) I realized the quilt was going to be very long and sort of skinny!. I have decided to add some borders on the sides only. I have received lots of support and some suggestions. In an effort to use up what I have, I am leaning toward a 4 1/2" unfinished border on the right side and a 8 1/2" unfinished one to the left side. Asymmetrical for sure.
A dark purple or red solid! The borders will be the same color on both sides. Since it is for my great granddaughter, I’m leaning towards the purple. And now that I am looking at it on the floor, I think I'll add 6 1/2 " borders to each side. I think I have enough.
But my goal of getting all the zig zag rows together happened. A sight pivot before it is truly a flimsy needing batting and backing! If this had not been my OMG, I may not have continued! So thanks, Patty and Anne-Marie!
Nice work!
