I have finally finished step 5 which was assembling the blocks - 52 of one and 48 of the other. Step 6 is putting the top together followed by the borders. But once again all that will have to wait I have a few customer quilts to finish first.
I did the layout in EQ6 off of the original layout, I wanted it to be a little bit bigger to use as a coverlet for our bed so inserted the gold border to get the measurements up to 96"x96." At least this is a Christmas quilt so I have 10 more months to finish to have it on the bed by December 1st.
Quiet day here - Kasey was having surgery to repair a prolapse of the 3rd eyelid or what they call 'cherry eye.' JD was getting groomed, so I just had Joker and Sophie here to keep me company - sort of, they napped. It's Joker's anniversary today - 3 years ago he came to live with us and has been wonderful to have him here.
Well - off to load another quilt.
