Stay at Home Round Robin Week 6 update

Just a quick check-in to share my progress on my 2022 Stay at Home Round Robin project.  Our final border was to include shoofly blocks as prompted by Chris of Chrisknits.  I made four of them and connected them with other strips and squares of my floral fabric to form two side borders.  Except you might notice they don't match in length... oops!  I cut the two blue squares too small for the right border and didn't notice it until everything was sewn together.



It was an easy fix and here is my final quilt top!

Measures 25.5 x 25.25 - not quite a square!  
Round 1: a curved border
Round 2: diamond blocks
Round 3: star blocks
Round 4: signature blocks
Round 5: appliqued hearts
Round 6: shoofly blocks

Now it's time to figure out a backing for this little wall-hanging, and get it finished up.

Smart to keep it small. When I played along last year it quickly got out of hand and I ended up with a piece to big to hang and too small to snuggle under!
