I have a confession to make. I've been calling the green fabric Chartreuse since the beginning of this QAL. I was wrong...it's actually Cactus. How did I make that mistake? Don't tell Robert Kaufman -- don't want to lose my Kona
I had hoped to add a border or two -- this finishes around 61 inches -- but I don't have enough fabric. I was working from my stash, but I do have enough Cactus to do the binding.
Now to make a plan for the quilting.

Yours is very pretty and I'd call that green chartuse before I'd call it cactus too! It looks more like the first than the second but I won't tell either! I didn't have enough fabrics to do borders either, oh well live and learn. Hopefully the next time we will both have enough to add borders.
ReplyDeleteThis is so lovely! Too bad you ran out if fabric. But I find Kona is remarkably consistent. Could you buy more fabric fur the borders? Or are you just ready to get it done? That I get. Can't wait to see the finish.
ReplyDeleteI meant to add how much I love that chartreuse or cactus or whatever you call it. Yum! This quilt is so lovely.
DeleteGreat job Anna. Love the bright colors. 😊
ReplyDeleteLooks lovely and bright, I love it!
ReplyDeleteI am anxious to get mine together, too! Although mine is probably my least favorite of all I've seen, it is still a really fun quilt! Yours is gorgeous!! Can't wait to see how you quilt it!
ReplyDeleteI love how your colors came together in the final design, Anja! The orange just glows. :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice! Despite being a Kona lover, I must confess I can't keep the names straight. Lol. Interested in seeing how you quilt this one! 😊
ReplyDeleteNo fabric scraps whatsoever to use with white for borders? What about a print that has some of the colors in the quilt? But even if none of those ideas works out, it's a beautiful quilt as it is! Thank you for sharing on Midweek Makers
ReplyDeleteI've been crushing on all the fabrics you picked out ever since we started this mystery quilt, so now I can crush on the quilt top. It all came together really nicely.
ReplyDeleteAnja, what a beauty! Your mystery quilt came out gorgeous! Ooo, Cactus binding will be nice! Even without any borders!
ReplyDeleteTurned out amazing. I'm still working on mine, I do see the light at the end of the tunnel, lol.
ReplyDeleteYou definitely chose the right colours. It's stunning.
ReplyDeleteThis looks beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLove your colour choices. I started sewing my top together last night and I'm also debating a border.
ReplyDeleteI love your color choices, that cactus color is awesome!
