The first two borders have been added and I started on the pieced borders. Both long sides of the quilt top have the pieced sawtooth star borders added. I can't show the whole quilt because the color for December hasn't been announced to the guild yet. The top and bottom border blocks need to be stitched together, then stitched to the quilt top. Then there are 2 more strip borders to add. Then it will be a finished quilt top. I have till 6:30 PM central time tomorrow to get that done. I don't want to jinx it, so we'll leave it at that.
Once I get this quilt top finished, I can move on to getting ready for the 2025 Bonnie Hunter mystery that kicks off on Friday. I still need to prewash some of my fabrics and then press them.
Linking up with Patchwork & Quilts, Sew and Tell Monday, and Oh Scrap.
The staggered stars make a great border!
