This week’s prompt for my Round Robin quilt was “plus signs” and I admit, I struggled with it a bit. I couldn’t quite figure out how to make it work with my quilt. Piano keys work quite nicely with Jane Austen… but plus signs….? They don’t seem very Austen-ish.
So I pondered it for a day or two. Finally, as Burton and I were cat-napping on the couch,

…it came to me. The next day, I got cutting and sewing.

Four plus signs were made, and then I got to sewing strips.
Not long after that, my plus signs became the cornerstone of a pretty blue border.

I love how it looks, and I’m definitely enjoying this challenge!
Great idea! Would you mind if I copied it with different fabric?

Your muse chose to insert the idea while you were in that twilight sleep!

Very nice! It’s such a pretty quilt too. Burton is probably very proud of of himself for helping with that idea.
