The skinny border is a great idea for protecting points while keeping a borderless look to the finished quilt. And I'm loving your new fabric goodies -- and wishing I was at QuiltCon with you, filling up an empty suitcase full of fabric! Maybe next year! I'm debating whether I should sneak off to the quilt shop today to buy border and backing fabric for my Spirit Song quilt, or if I should try to use something from my stash (a couple things that COULD work, but nothing I'm over-the-moon excited about). I've been working on this one since October; doesn't it deserve special border and backing fabric chosen just for itself? Let me know if you have a Greek myth to justify today's shopping spree... Because there is no way I could drive an hour and a half round trip to the quilt shop and ONLY come home with borders for Spirit Song. -- I KNOW!! Noah's Ark! I need to purchase TWO YARDS from every bolt, in case the store is wiped out by a flood!
