May OMG
I do not remember the name of this pattern. I only have some of the pattern pages with the unfinished top. This has been a UFO for some time. I did not want to add the border that the pattern designer used (appliqued bats). I went to see the AQS show in Paducah with my sister. That was a wonderful adventure. While there we went to a quilt shop at some farm in the area. The owner of the shop had a quilt hanging that was vertical strips of chevrons made from all black fabrics. The owner explained to me that she had designed this quilt for a fabric company to show off one of their lines. I remember thinking I would love that job and wondering how one would get a job like that. Anyway....back to my quilt....I remember thinking that on the perimeter I did not want appliqued black bats on light backgrounds- I would rather have quilted ones on black chevrons. My only problem was how to make the corners???? I think I have my solution. My May OMG will be to piece the border for this quilt.
