I wanted to share what I did with my bowtie winnings. First I had all the blocks sewn together on point with a plain block in between and decided I didn't like the setting. Yesterday I ripped the whole quilt top apart, started over and got the borders on it this morning. I didn't notice until I was taking the picture that I forgot to add the navy blue inner border! After all the work I did and ripping I decided I wasn't going to rip the borders off just to add the inner border. I'm sure my nephew will never know the difference. Now to get it sandwiched and quilted.

Wow, wow, wow!! I really LOVE this setting. If you are missing the navy inner border, how about a navy binding?
ReplyDeleteTerri,
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how many ways there are to set a simple block. I really like your version. Congratulations on finishing the quilt so quickly. It's nice to see the blocks put to use. Kathie
Wow Terri, that is really nice what a cool design, I am sure your nephew will love it! It looks "manly."
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for your comments on my quilt. It really was fun playing with different settings.

Terri - this is absolutely beautiful! You can truly see the bow ties, which does make it a bit more masculine. You did a great job and thanks for letting us see what has been made from some of the blocks we sent off.
