Frolic is finished!!

My one BIG accomplishment for April is to finish Frolic!

This is Bonnie Hunter's 2019 Mystery. https://quiltville.blogspot.com/p/frolic-mystery.html

I changed the outer pieced border - just because - and added a final outside border so my binding does not cut off points. The quilt ended up at 86 x 86 inches. Just a little smaller than my preferred bed size of 90 x 90.

I did make a Quarantine Challenge quilt for Thimble Towne, but I can't show it. There will be a customer vote when the store is allowed to open for customers.

Frolic. 86 x 86 inches.

I used the mock flange technique for the binding.
It's all done by machine with a pop of color.

I am not pleased with my choice of thread color.
The next (?) quilt this busy - small pieces! -
I will select one color and use throughout the entire quilt.
For the non-star block I used a gold color and it blended well
with just about everything. No glaring contrasts.
In reality, when the quilt is on the bed, the quilting looks fine.

Just looked at previous posts and realized I did not show another March finish.

This is for my newest great-niece born March 2. I'm excited that it's already done and ready for delivery - when ever that's possible.
