Mitred

Lily and I were up until 3 this morning

adding the final border

and making the mitred corners (my first! second, third and fourth!) 

so I could drop Leanne’s quilt off with Debbie today for long-arming. 

Small child for scale

Now that the corners are done, I don’t know what I was so worried about. I followed this Fons & Porter tutorial and it really was a breeze. 

Happily, Leanne is thrilled with the result. 

This spectacular tiger panel was going to be the quilt’s focus until Leanne heard “glow in the dark”. Glad we could incorporate both pieces in her birthday quilt.
