Last time I posted about this project only two sides of border #4 were finished and attached. I did finish all the log cabin blocks for border #5.
I must admit, I stole the log cabin corner idea from several other bloggers. I don't remember everyone that used that approach, but thank you for sharing that idea. I decided to use the prompt for border #6 to fill in the the rest of the border.
I tried kite blocks. Those just didn't work with the previous borders. Coming up with another block that starts with K didn't work for me either. So I pushed the boundaries of the prompt and went with a block that starts with the first initial of my last name.
The square in a square blocks worked out pretty well. The side borders are finished. The top border has all the blocks made and is partially assembled. The blocks for the bottom border are at the sewing machine. So I didn't quite finish that last border, but I'm close. The plan is to add a couple of non-pieced borders to enlarge and finish up this project. I'm hoping to have border 6 done and all the remaining borders done by the time the final parade is up later this month. I'm pretty happy with how this came together.
Linking up with The Darling Dogwood for Round #6. Also linking up with my regular Monday linky parties of Design Wall Monday and Patchwork & Quilts.

Great corner solution! I'll have to remember that one.
I like the intensity of the colors! The corners are an interesting design.
Great way to use the prompt to make it work for you! I admit I used the initial block idea twice myself.
I like your corner solution! You've done a great job proportioning the colors, it is so pleasing to the eye.
The great thing about the SAHRR project is that you can make it work however you want! I like how yours is shaping up with the corner log cabins and square in a square blocks. How big is it at this point?
