My pictures aren't that great, but it's past my bedtime and I will take some better ones later this week. Yes, I'm doing the happy dance. All four borders are attached to the 25 blocks in the center.
I put my initials at the center of the top.
The side borders are similar to the pattern, but I did my own thing on the top and bottom. I added some birds to the bottom as well as grape clusters.
I'm very happy that I added purple to the borders, I think it adds a little something.
I must get to bed, it's a work day tomorrow. I've been working on other peoples quilts this weekend, but I was so close that I had to do the final embroidery and add the final border before bedtime.
There is a little bit of finishing in the corners, nothing an evening of TV would solve.
Hope your weekend was as exciting as mine!
