I got half of Mom's quilt put together last night. I don't have quite enough green for the other half of the first border, so I'll either put the other half together and add the border later or run out today for a bit more green. The final border will be enough of the green to make it the right size. Anna's bed is queen sized, so I'll take it up there to see how it hangs. It is supposed to fall to the ground, so the exact dimensions are somewhat important.
I also got a few blocks cut out for my next quilt while supervising swimming yesterday afternoon. I sent those through as leaders and enders while making the top. This is a quilt for my niece Paige and the colors are based on some sheets that my sister gave me to make a dust ruffle. Dust ruffles seem to be a recurring theme around here lately. I'm also supposed to make one for my nephew Zach. If I were a really good sister I'd get those put together and off in the mail ASAP. The kids are standing patiently by the pool waiting for me to come out, so I'd better grab my fabric and go watch.

I love your sisters choice quilt, it is simply stunning! And those whirly gigs are great! Glad your enjoying the weather, its raining and high 60's here!
Wow Angela! The Sister's Choice looks A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!!!!
I'm sorry, but I can't help you with how to handle the borders/corners. I guess I had never thought of it----I would just keep it as is; squared up (if that's what you meant).
The Whirly Giggles are CUTE! And how could they NOT be with a name like that ?!?!? :0)
