To the retreat I brought a stack of fat eights I had in my stash for ages, as well as a couple of FQs and some bits and pieces. When the blocks were done, there were hardly a scrap left. But since this was to be a quilt from stash, I didn't want to purchase any border material. I was thinking scrappy, but I haven't had a great idea for how to do it. So the top has been hanging on my quilt rack since I got home, awaiting a solution...
...which turned out quite simple, just a narrow 1.5" light scrappy stop border, and a floral Kansas Troubles fabric I have been hoarding . Why complicate what can be solved simply?
On to cutting and sewing! And looking through stash to figure out what would fit as a backing and binding... Fingers crossed it will all turn out good!

Lekkert mønster og flotte dype farger, dette likte jeg:)
Så fint det blei! Eg har truffe damene frå Lappemakeriet i helga, på Sogn og Fjordane-treff i Førde. Det var veldig inspirerande!
