Stitchin' Sisters Round Robin Update

My border on Annette's Medallion is done!

I am really happy with how this looks and hope Annette will be, too.

In the end it came together easily.

This was not my original border idea.

At one point I had two sides on and then I removed them and only kept the corners.

The nine patch corners were made with fabric that Annette included with her medallion and I knew right away when I saw this block that I wanted to extend them outward.

I had tried to add fabrics from my stash but they were not a good addition so I went fabric shopping and bought three half yards, the lighter red, the purple herringbone and the red and purple print.  Much better!

Here are the fabrics that I added

Here is a closeup of how these fabrics work with the original fabrics that Annette chose.

Sometimes it takes me awhile to figure out just what the medallion wants, 

but when I do it all falls together. 

I really enjoy the challenges that these pretty medallions bring.

I shall enjoy this one brightening my wall for the day.

Time to mail tomorrow!

Looking forward to working on Gina's RR next month!
