I had all of the ditch quilting done, hadn't decided how to quilt the borders, and then decided to use a double needle and 2 different colors of purple thread. After I quilted the borders I decided to just experiment with the double needle stitching in other places. When I finished I was sure I had ruined it and then I took it to the ironing board and steam pressed from the back. Well now it was not too bad, certainly not a winner in anyone's book but passable.
I quilted in a spiral formation in this block.
I stitched through the narrow bands in the piecing in 2 different directions.
I have started hand stitching the binding (bottom of top picture). I'll show the whole picture tomorrow when the binding is done.

We're back in the deep freeze outside so it will be a good day to quilt.
