Borders

These are the borders for the Hearts and Flowers quilt. I like the red rose in the heart the most.
Today I cut out the fabrics for the third border. It is a lot of fun to make the choices for the fabric, not to dark, not to light. More green, or no! more purple. A constant search of the right fabric.
I work with freezer paper, and this evening I laced (I hope you understand?) the fabric upon the freezer paper, so I can start tomorrow with applique.
