It took until mid-May to get all the additional blocks and sashing units made. Then everything hung around on my design wall for ages. Over the last week, I have been pushing to get all those parts joined together, and yesterday it finally happened. Here is the completed center for my Frolic quilt!
The next step will be deciding what to do for borders. Bonnie's version had two rows of HSTs, but I might go with something simpler. According to my quilt software, it should currently measure about 55" x 73.5". I'm debating how big I want it to end up. This is where so many of my quilt projects get bogged down!

This is lovely--boy her quilts have lotsa parts...but they are beautiful Hugs from afar, julierose
ReplyDeleteIt's fantastic! I know how much sewing you did to get it to this point!
ReplyDeleteI am inspired!
I like it! I've pretty much given up on the annual mystery quilt because I just don't need more big quilts. I could go smaller but I really need to keep focusing on finishing what I have. I look forward to seeing what you decide to do with your borders.
ReplyDeleteI just love your color scheme!! Kind of wish I had deviated too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beauty! Your colors are great and the quilt really pops - Controlled Scrappy is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI love your colors. They go really well together.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on completing your Central Frolic Expansion Project, Julie! Best of luck on deciding what to do for the borders. Whatever you do, it's going to be SEW lovely!
ReplyDeleteLove your color scheme! I guess to find an answer to your question, image how it's going to be used? Maybe that will provide an answer.
ReplyDeleteOh! That is just gorgeous!! I bet you are so happy to get it to this stage!
ReplyDeleteGreat color scheme! I don’t have enough confidence to deviate from Bonnie’s color choices! So many pieces in these beauties!
ReplyDeleteIt's usually where my quilts stall too. Your rendition of Frolic is so lovely. Hope you find the borders you like soon and get'erdone. ;^)
ReplyDeleteLove your color palette for Frolic. Congrats on getting the center part finished. I struggled on the borders too, but fingers crossed my thoughts on that will work out. Hope you have a good plan worked out now too.
ReplyDeleteFrolic is looking lovely. I am up to joining the sashings. Hopefully it won't be too long before it's a top. Thatnks for inspiring me to keep working on it.
ReplyDeleteGreat progress on Frolic, love your colors!
