Now Borders!

Hi friends!
When it got bigger I started pinning a row on the top and bottom so I could sew two down each trip to the sewing machine.
When I got this far I added up the borders and this part and I have done just enough for a king sized quilt. So today maybe I will get at least part of the three borders on.
I have plenty of fall for a queen sized but the borders should give me 104 on one a  little less from top to bottom.
Since Amy picked it out she should like it. She just saw a smaller version earlier that I made for my father's only living sister. No brothers , Just sweet Geneva his brother's wife that I made one for. Out of a family of 15 kids.
Have a good one
Hugs

I am starting around and making all my grand's a quilt again and our 6 kids one.

I really like how the dark and light tumblers make it appear striped.
