Folk art quilts are always wonderful & fun to make but telling you the border won't fit would make anyone nervous! I like the border treatment and look forward to seeing how you quilt it - great job!!Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07395890193161794631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5016712355074044574.post-43008852350262278392015-08-06T05:21:37.145-04:002015-08-06T05:21:37.145-04:00I have this pattern and love this quilt.

I LOVE it, but yes, those pesky homespun fabrics tend to morph and change. I use starch on them before I even cut them, seems to help stabilize while cutting, pinning, sewing, pressing and just plain handling. It is a fabulous top and I can't wait to see it quilted and boundSharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12037415376456508137noreply@blogger.com
