I love the way you used those delightful fall fabrics to make such a lively quilt.

This is such a wonderful Fall/Thanksgiving quilt!

I'd love to know how you did the borders? Someone called it 'floating borders"? Very, very nice!

I have the tumbler templates from Missouri Star Quilt Company and I now know one fabric choice/combination I will be using thanks to your inspirational quilt!

Take the first piece and turn the second one so they make a rectangle and you just keep putting them together until you get the length you want. Hope this makes sense.
