The border is complete and I am well pleased with the result. I need to decide upon a fabric for the binding and make the backing and I will be ready for sandwiching and quilting. I recently read a tip from a famous quilter....I wish I could remember the quilter's name and credit the idea but alas I do not....oh well....anyway she said that to make her backing from standard yardage that she cuts diagonally across the yardage adds extra to fit diagonally through the middle of her quilt. I am going to try that and see how it works. My thought was to use the extra pieces I had left from the chevron and put that diagonally across between the corners.
