another ufo
I have been busy sewing basket blocks and 25 patches but since I posted about that last week I will show you a ufo that I have sitting on the shelf.
I got the blocks from a "pizza box" challenge with my guild. We put some fabric and some guidelines and one completed block in the box and passed it around to everyone in the guild who then made a block for your box. I really like the blocks and I got busy right away and made the setting triangles. And now I am stuck - I don't know what to do about borders. I sort of want the quilt to be larger. I've thought I would like to make wide appliqued borders for it but I'm not sure if it would be too much for an already busy quilt.
We went camping over the weekend at a beautiful mountain lake near the town of Nordegg. Nordegg is a mostly abandoned coal mining town. Several old buildings have been boarded up a long time. I like this one - the blue doors always make me smile. :0) I wonder what the building was used for... plus the view is wonderful!
