BOM Block 11 and Carolina Crossroads Top is DONE!

Disregard my crazy hairdo but check it out! I finally got the borders on my Carolina Crossroads quilt at June's today! We didn't get the best picture because the quilt is so big but I did a red inner border and a blue outer border...both scrappy. Tomorrow I will get better photos outside and blog them! Still thinking I should gift this one to my youngest son Mackenzie for his high school graduation in June, but this will be a hard one to part with!


I also completed block eleven of the Designer Mystery Block of the Month and put it in the row...so one more to go! This one is called "Block of Good Cheer" and the designer is Anne Sutton of www.bunnyhilldesigns.com

This quilt is really going to be stunning. Each block took me a few hours to make (and Kathy a half hour to cut!) and it really it is a bit more frogging around than I like but I am glad I did it anyway. It was challenging and I love the colors. It is coming together very nicely and I think my mother will love it.
