A Possible Completion



A long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away..... Ok, so maybe not really, but a couple of years ago, despite having made a few quilts by teaching myself, I decided to take a beginner quilting class so I could learn some good tips and techniques you just don't get from reading books or watching tv. In the class you actually make 4 blocks, one with regular piecing, one with triangles, one with curves, and one with machine applique. I didn't really want a wall hanging so I had planned to add more blocks. Fast forward to recently when I dug that sucker out and got back to work on it. I wound up making a total of 12 blocks, plus did cornerstones and sashing. Now why is it a "Possible Completion" you ask? I'll tell you why. I don't have fabric left to do a border and I think it needs one. Well, that's sort of a lie (can you sort of lie?) I might could do a pieced border with the scraps I have, but I really don't want to work that hard. Possibly, just possibly I could buy some more fabric that works. Hmmm. Is anyone out there? What do you think?
