I thought I liked the 2 partial blue circles meeting on the top left borders but now I wonder if it is distracting. I could take that strip off and flip it end for end and it might look better. I'll look at it again when I get home from the family reunion this afternoon. A few people tried to convince me to put a narrow border first but I like the way the colors in the crosses meet the circles in the border. I do like my quilts busy!
The sashing is a little wider than I had it for the audition. I decided a little more of it might be an even bigger impact without stealing the spotlight from the stars. I think I will quilt this one with diagonal lines in one direction.
It seems like the redbud leaves turned yellow overnight. I only noticed a few branches with them a couple days ago.
As soon as they turn color they start dropping. The squirrels love it because it gives them more coverage when they bury the walnuts. I hope they remember where they buried them because I'm tired of cutting down little walnut trees.
