More Work In Progress

I'm auditioning border ideas for Good Morning Purple

(or what will soon become my lap quilt by that name).

I've had this framed print from Stash Tea since 2002.

The print was in my office at the college for years

and since then has lived near my sewing machine.

I started out to make pinwheel blocks like these.

The photos above show Karen's blocks 

patterned after Wanda's pinwheel quilt.

Somehow, my blocks transformed themselves . . .

And then, while I was moving things around 

to make room on the cutting table,

I discovered the PERFECT fabrics to back my quilt!

It's all good.
