Friday Night Sew-In Results

So far I've got the borders onto Nephew#2's quilt.

I'm thrilled with how it turned out but I wish I could have had wider borders but my backing is only 60" so I could go so wide. DH was nice enough to be quilt holder for this one. I'll baste and quilt this one this week hopefully.

Since it's just before 9 I think I may try to get those extra borders made up and onto Blushing Sunday.
Edit
Here is Blushing Sunday with the extra borders added.

It now measures 50x50, which is a much better size to me. I totally adore this line. I think I may actually buy some for backing and binding, which I rarely do, at least for backing. But it is just so sweet!

The Blushing Sunday is fabulous with that bigger border! I like your nephew's quilt top as well.

I love the quilt you made with the Blush line. I adore it too. I started out with a charm pack and two layer cakes and then finally ordered 1/2 and 1 yard pieces of my favorites to make a generous lap quilt :-). Now I need to come up with a pattern. I just finished a post about my little quilts I made from the Blush charm pack. Check it out if you have time.
