Five Rows Done

I am making good progress on the Kaleidoscope Quilt!  I have 5 rows done now (but the rows are not yet sewed together.  Only the top row has its blocks sewed together, the rest of the blocks are just "placed."  but you can see how the rings encircle each kaleidoscopic star, and how the border will look.  I need a bigger design wall, the bottom of this is all discombobulated, and the blocks fall off on the right, but it's still PROGRESS!  This is looking better and better!  See for yourself!

I like that the border is actually finishing up with the rest of the quilt.  I won't have to add another border to it. There are a lot of points to match up, all these triangles coming together.  Lots of clipped points in the border triangles, even though I tried hard to sew that (damn) quarter inch carefully. Cutting has to be accurate and so does squaring up the block.  Some blocks turned out smaller, and I think that affects the overall outcome.  I might be able to camouflage some of that with the quilting!  We'll see.  I like crisp sharp points and I like my blocks to match up perfectly. I may have to settle for less.  Overall, though, I like this quilt a lot!
