Progress!





This week's work session finds us getting closer to the end of the project. Eleanor Warner finished connecting the strips at home so the center pieced section is complete. We spent most of our time today removing the papers - not that much fun, but at least it goes quickly with lots of hands. Janet Turini now has the distinctly difficult task of attaching the teeny-tiny piping around the outside of the center - the two straight edges should be okay, but man, those jagged edges - good luck, Janet!

Several of us will be putting the finishing touches (embroidery and other details) on the borders, and then they'll be all set to attach to the center. We're not exactly sure how we're going to do that yet, but somebody's bound to come up with a plan by the time it's ready to go!
