My top is done! This was quite a journey but a fun one. Thanks to Sarah for this fun pattern and to Barbara for her tips and tricks! I didn’t plan on the colour placement and once completed I can see some areas I would have changed, but overall I’m very happy. I was determined to just use my stash and succeeded.

I had decided a few months ago that I would not include the last border, but looking at this photo, I think one is needed. I don't want it to be too much bigger and oops, I guess a longarm quilter will need more fabric all around also. I am open to suggestions if anyone is still checking this forum page. I was thinking of a simple keyboard border???? Not sure that would complement the overall pattern.
I would not have gotten to this point without Barbara and the forum and Sarah's beautiful pattern.Thank you all.

This is my first applique quilt and I have loved it very much. I enjoy being out of my sewing room and in the living room with my family. I do not have free-motion quilting experience and do not have it in my budget for custom quilting. I have enjoyed "big stitch" quilting in the past. Has anyone considered hand quilting with Pearle cotton and a big stitch? I am currently on month 9 but am looking forward to planning the next phase! I have enjoyed seeing all of your beautiful creations.

Helen,
Thank you so much for these suggestions. You helped me immensely months ago by suggesting a narrow border to bring the center block up to the correct size when I hadn't realized how much machine appliqué (on untreated fabric) would shrink the fabric. I might repeat the i/4 inch pink dot border around the edge. I love the narrow borders in orange you have created Thank you.

This is my BMO, Homeward Bound. I enjoyed making this quilt and even after quilting for fifty years I learned from Sarah Fielke. However, I needed to make my quilt larger since our fair requires a 324 inch perimeter to qualify for Grand Champion. If you win Grand Champion you proceed to a regional competition and a win there sends your quilt to a Provincial competition. (I live in Ontario, Canada). My quilt is now 89 x89. The biggest challenge was the last border. I had to call on my granddaughter with a math degree to assist me.
I really think Sarah’s pattern is prize worthy. Here’s hoping.
