I finished this quilt top early last week but was unable to post about it because my computer satellite dish died from, get this, the extra dry, hot, very hot Texas weather plus a couple of dewy mornings of moisture and voila... "cracked" thingy on the dish leading to
NO Internet service.... OMG, I nearly went into more "wackiness".... it was really getting ugly around my house.... I couldn't check on what everyone in bloggerland was doing, couldn't check my email and couldn't surf the net..... Eeeeek! But now, thank goodness, I'm back!
Anyway, the photo isn't that good but hopefully you can see the first border is made from an assortment of 2 1/2 inch squares followed by a 3 inch floral border. This was quick and fun and all fabrics came from my stash.
It's a great idea to go through your stash every so often, sort pieces and strips into colors and place where you can easily see what you're looking for. That's how I found most of the fabrics used in this quilt... LOL

Very nice!
Love it! You are such an inspiration!
Cool, especially for a "geometric gem"!!! LOL It is lovely and I'm hoping our quilt guild will want to do it as their block of the month and that "I" win the blocks in the drawing!!!!
Always love your stuff!!
Blessings
Excellent to have you back. The quilt is lovely. Isn't stash busting fun?
Betcha got a lot done without the internet?
LOVE quilts made from stash and yours is no exception. I'd be going crazy, too, without being able to check blogs and emails!!!
WOW that's great - there's nothing prettier than scrappy! I bet you could almost see a tiny dent in your stash, too!! ;)
It would get ugly around here if my internet was down. REALLY REALLY ugly, lol. I could see me trying to hook up through some unsecured site, just to check emails and my bloglist!
Yes, we have really come to depend on our internet services haven't we?? don't know if it's a good thing or not, but I would hate to be without it now!! Your quilt turned out beautifully!!!!
