I am to the end of another awesome design by Lori Holt. The Bee Vintage Sew a long was a great experience and one that I really enjoyed doing. After my weeks of pretty much keeping up with the weekly progress, I fell behind on the sashing and borders, but can happily say I have succeeded in finishing this one….finally! 

I was really worried about lining up the sashing and borders and although you can see a few off by a centimeter or two, for the most part these line up really well. When sewing all the sashing and borders I used a seam guile to make sure I stayed at 1/4” seam on everything. This really helped to keep everything lined up and spaced correctly, so when I got to the borders, the measurements given for cutting the borders actually matched the length my sides and top were. This is a huge accomplishment in the quilt world.

I still need to put the top on the Moxie to be quilted, but that will have to wait until 1) I order the actual backing fabric and, 2) I get moved into the new house and get my sewing room set back up. Until then please enjoy the look of my latest finish project.
