Sister Choice is a Flimsy!

 Happy Tuesday!  I finished the pieced border on my sister's choice quilt, and here it is, being modeled by the lovely Miss Rosie Posie Pudding Pie.  She finds it quite scrappy, and though not quilted nor as cuddly soft as she requires, she thinks this finished quilt top has potential!!
 I think the flash hurts her eyes...she always turns away.
Another shot...  This did use lots of my scraps!!  I truly enjoyed this piecing...thanks Bonnie Hunter for providing the inspiration!!


Have a great day, everyone!!
