Yesterday was the last day of Aug-tober, so that meant Burton and I had to get cracking on wrapping up our last Hallowe’en top!
The friendship stars were already made – we just had to turn them into borders around our panel.

The first border went on fairly smoothly, or so I thought.

But clearly, the process was exhausting for his Lordship. I was on my own for the second border.

Though he woke up in time to inspect it and make sure I had the stars just so. It wasn’t quite big enough yet, so he thought we should add a couple more borders.

We went with just plain ones to finish it off and Lemmy thinks it was a good call.

It brought the whole thing out to 60 inches square – a decent size lap quilt.

It will get plain black binding. And I found this lovely flannel plaid that matches the pastel colours of the top perfectly! Mom has already laid claim to this one for the quilting… apparently she’s got a gourd idea! I just have to get it to her.
She, also, has had a very productive Aug-tober, and a couple of her creations are already in the shop … here and here.
What a clever border! I love the vintage look of this one. I’ve got some paper cutouts in with my Halloween stuff that I’ve had for ages that look a lot like your kitty and pumpkin.
