First - I sewed the new GOLD border strips on my Harmonic Convergence -
The GOLD separates the center from the border nicely -
Without blending in -
I switched out the border piece in the above photo -
Because it was too short -
And found two other sections with some TURQUOISE in them -
Then I played with the side borders and the one on the bottom right -
I think the GOLD will work nicely all the way around -
Then I sorted my jelly rolls into sets of five -
Just as they came off the roll -
For another Upstairs/Downstairs quilt top -
To see what it would look like if I sorted them "as-is" -
My friend, LindaS, is making an Upstairs/Downstairs quilt top - HERE -
And we're trying different strata combinations -
To see if we can figure out why some jelly rolls work better than others -
Anyway - this one has several different colors -
And it is an experiment to see how it turns out -
If I don't try to "control" the order of the colors/values -
Then - after dinner - my daughter and I played with the puzzle some more -
And got several "twosies" and "threesies" and "foursies" together -
But nothing of much substance - yet -
Just taking our sweet time - and enjoying all of the pretty colors - LOL -
Then - for those of you who like Echo -
Here's a shot of her on the couch - on top of a sheet -
And under a blanket - ready for bed -
As if to say - "I'm comfy - where are YOU going to sleep?" - LOL -
She also looks like she's "ready for her close-up" -
Remember that line? - LOL - ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
