Well I have been busy sewing between being busy with other stuff, like kids, homework, playing chauffeur, and spending time with Mr. B. who took some time off from works. So we went on a date to breakfast and a movie. We had two birthday celebrations for Little Bit who turn 10. I took in a movie with the girls. Plus I taught a four hour class, my Stick Witch class. Gosh I am making myself tired just listing all this out.
So now all four borders are constructed, minus the four triangles that are missing. See the white spots below.
I found out that I last worked on these triangles in 2005, so it has only been 10 years since I last worked on the quilt, instead 12 years.
It was really fun to go though all the fabrics I had put aside for the plain triangles. Some of the fabrics are Millennium fabrics, I included them, since that was my original plan. Since these fabrics have been tucked away for ten years, I also cut a small square from each of the fabrics to make Yo-Yos for my Yo-Yo quilt. See the side bar, Yo-Yo to see old post on the progress of the quilt.

Now to go make four triangles and two corners. I am hoping now that the borders are almost completed I will have more momentum or at least not loose any.
I know why I put it away, I got intimidated by those last four triangles I had to make as well as putting on those borders.
It feels good to be getting to this point. I want to finish this!
