Ta-da! The center part is done, including squaring, trimming, and stay-stitching the edges. On to the borders!
Now that I've got the tricky parts done, I can do the borders at my leisure. I'll be making HSTs in both purple and orange for a while, which will be a perfect leader/ender as I push forward some other projects that have been on hold while I frolicked mysteriously along.
And I got two more doodads done for the RSC.
Is it just me or are they getting brighter?
Linking with SoScrappy for ScrapHappy Saturday and with Quilting is more fun than Housework for Oh Scrap! Come see all the scrappy rainbow fun!
Congratulations on getting Frolic together. It looks good! The nice thing about taking a bit longer is that you see all the other border ideas people have had. I have seen a few I like better than what I ended up with (I did it like Bonnie's).
ReplyDeleteIt's very hard to not make bright pieces in the orange mode, at least for me...
ReplyDeleteYour Frolic is looking beautiful lovely work...hugs, Julierose
I so love your Frolic quilt! Congrats for plowing through the hardest part. (Yes, we are still stuck in snow and plows are basically all we see) What's happening with the Doodads? Are they to be part of Frolic? as a border? Can't wait to see what you have in mind for those. Enjoy! ;^)
ReplyDeleteSuper progress on your Frolic! Doing the borders as leaders/enders is very smart :)
ReplyDeleteGreat progress! Such a wonderful colorway. And I love that your Temperature quilt is photobombing Frolic.
ReplyDeleteWoohoo! Happy frolicking over the completion of the top! Borders, schmorders. They will be a piece of cake now. ;-)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on persisting with your mystery Frolic and finishing the quilt top. You definitely have the hard part done. I haven't even started mine!
ReplyDeleteSEW good of you to coordinate your Frolicking escapade with the RSC's ORANGE Color of the Month!! :o))
ReplyDeleteIt's looking amazing! Love your colours!
ReplyDeleteFrolic looks great, you will be able to make the border at your leisure.
ReplyDeleteWay to go, Gayle! Your Frolic is such a happy quilt!
ReplyDeleteThat is looking AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteFrolic is looking lovely! You get a gold star (or perhaps an orange one?) for getting it this far!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on frolic coming along. Its border weekend on mine. Hours of puecing those borders made me wish I had used the hsts as leaders and enders!
ReplyDeleteYes, piecing the center of fussy quilts is always cause for celebration. A milestone. Good luck with the rest.
ReplyDeleteWow! Way to go!
ReplyDeleteYour Frolic is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your progress with Frolic! It's a beauty.
ReplyDeleteNice work on frolic. I like your orange and bright looks good to me. I've pretty well decided not to play along with RSC this year. I have too many other projects started and I couldn't find a block I particularly liked. Oh well!
ReplyDeleteYou really made a lot of progress on Frolic. It is looking wonderful. Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
ReplyDeleteWow, amazing progress on your beautiful Frolic, I love it! Pretty orange blocks too
