Re: Twin Sisters!
Great job, What size is this? Were you able to spin your seams in the back? I made a lap rob of this pattern and couldn't spin my seams on the squares like the directions instructed.

Re: Twin Sisters!
I love your quilt. Never done a wide border like this. I know this is a stupid question but do you put batting in your border to make it puffy like the rest of the quilt? Thanks

Re: Twin Sisters!
Thanks everybody so much! I haven't quilted it yet due to all the wedding prep but it's the first project after we get done!
I lost track of how many fabrics exactly. I know there were at least 7 or 8 blues and probably 6 or 7 reds. The blue cornerstones were another fabric, there are two different whites, one having tiny blue dots and the other having tiny red, blue, green dots.
I got 'some' of the seams to spin and it's pretty cool how that looks.
As far as batting, yes I will take it to the edges so that the border is quilted as well.
This would be cool as an autograph quilt! Good idea! We're doing the "Cracker Box" or "Autograph Block" for DS and DIL.
Thanks again everybody!

Beautiful... I am ghoing to make the twin sisters for a wonderful little girl. The daughter of a girl I have known since she was tiny herself. Hope I have such a great looking quilt when I am finished.
