Progress on quilt tops

Three of the four National Parks quilt tops have borders.
Below is the dark green with tan dot border.


This one has sage green with tossed badges for the border.


Below is the first try layout with blocks of batik.
I wasn't happy with the look so I ripped seams and took out the batik.


The new layout has less batik with small posters inserted.
It wasn't too difficult to resew the blocks.
I sewed in the same order as the original layout -
side with middle poster, then sides of the column, last side to the border.


I think the final top will have light sage green with tossed words for the border.
I have enough of the dark green dot but I want to use as much of the theme fabric as possible.


Grandson David had a big week.
He turned seven!


And participated in a violin recital.


Wish I could have been there in person.
Thankful for photos, videos, and FaceTime.

Happy Sewing!
