Kathleen at Kathleen McMusing gave us our sixth border assignment. She challenged us to use numbers and/or letters in our final border and then to share how we interpreted this border prompt.
I knew I wanted to incorporate more of the green fussy-cut snowflakes from my Maywood Studio Christmas Night Green Patchwork Snowflake fabric and decided that I wanted to make four-patches for this final border but wanted to construct them on-point to make them into diamonds rather than squares. Below are my left and right sixth borders that I have not yet attached as this work-in-progress has a little issue.
The middle of the quilt is about 29″ in length and my fifth borders are 30″ in length. I need rip out the white sashing strip between my fourth and fifth borders and correctly calculate the length of the sashing strip and then recut and sew that sashing strip. I will also take out the print fabric at the ends and center of my fifth border and resize those pieces as needed.
I plan to have the quilt top completed by the March 18th Finished SAHRR parade.

I guess you have been joining me as I worked along with Jack fixing a number of things. Your quilt is lovely, and won’t it be fun to look back at the process next Christmas.
