Baby A's pieced topFirst

Boy! What a difference an afternoon of sewing makes. Baby A's top is all together and one of the borders is on it.

After offering a rather symmetrical layout, I asked Michael to take a crack at it. His layout was much more driven by the need to make the odd sized pieces look like they were a part of the design so he put two black blocks together on opposite sides of the doubles. 


In the end, Mom liked the first layout better so that's what happened. And, we used the black backing material for the first border - it's 3". 
Rows are all done and sewn together

First border is on


Next we'll get together to pick out the second border, backing and binding material. 

Just a couple more steps before handing it over to the quilter - might happen before Christmas if we stay focused.
