OK, so I got a little sidetracked and started another quilt while I was hand appliquéd the patches onto my squares. They took a little more time than I realized. So I started a Kaleidoscope quilt. All is going good with that one. I started it a few days ago. Got almost half of the pieces cut. I decided to get a light tan to go in between my striped pieces to form the Kaleidoscope. Meanwhile, I got all my hand appliqué finished form my perennial quilt. So yesterday, I was putting all the little squares together. I have a total of 36 - 18 inch blocks. I made 6 strips of 6 blocks. Rotating every other block with a building block that I made earlier. I must take my time putting them all together to match the points and get them perfect. So far so good. I could not sew as long as I wanted to, so only got my six rows done. But I did cut my strips that will go around them and now have them ready to sew on. As for the boarder, I have a couple different ideas as to what I want to make. Guess I will go back to the kaleidoscope and keep thinking of my boarder.
