I really wanted to get the Stay at Home Round Robin top done before I headed off to Mom’s. I want her to do some fancy quilting on it, so I wanted to bring it and leave it with her.
So… although I don’t love sewing after dinner – I took an evening last week and did just that.
It only took a couple hours to get all the pinwheels sewn together and the borders on. Though I did mis-measure the grey fabric a couple times – which was quite frustrating!
Still the borders are on and I’m quite pleased. I love this way of framing a panel. It’s a technique I’ve used before and will definitely use again! Here’s a closer look at the blocks in each border.
In the end, the top finished up at about 58″ x 60″ so a nice little lap quilt.
I’ll share pics of Mom’s magic quilting when she had a chance to get to it. As you know, she’s got a pile of her own creations to quilt!
