My first calculation resulted in a "float" of about 3.5 inches ... uhh, doesn't sound right. Oh great, a slight error when mixing my lengths and widths, having the mess all crumpled up on a too-small work area. LOL But even realizing the error, I sure like looking.
I wonder if my powers of concentration will ever return?
I can never calculate borders in advance. I have to sew the pieced border and then see how big the gap is. Whatever the size of your stop border, this quilt is fabulous already. Take care. ;^)
ReplyDeleteOh my, I just love how pineapples dance and swirl, and this one grabs my eye and takes me for a spin.

You have never lost any ability to make a dazzling quilt! Another beauty...!
ReplyDeleteThat border is a wonderful finish for this quilt! Did you figure out the float measurement? I know I have the formula somewhere in a notebook. If you need it, let me know and I will hunt it down for you.

ReplyDeleteYes, I figured out the "float" after realizing I had been careless with calculations and measurements. Hope I remember this lesson for the next time!
ReplyDeleteI know I could never do any calculations! I'm too bad with numbers! That quilt of yours looks like it will be a beauty no matter how you put on the borders! I love it!
