But, of course, when I laid it out, just like my photo in my last post, I saw my mistakes (I fixed the muddy spot, by the way. I figured, I have the time, so why not?). Anyway, I see that the bottom corners of the two side borders are wrong, so now I'll fix those. I'm glad I'm not on a deadline, because this one is taking much longer than I anticipated. It continues to grow on me, though. Maybe I don't dislike florals as much as I thought.
Work was manageable last week, but I can already tell that the increased screen time is going to be hard for me, both hard on the eyes and hard for my focus. Thank goodness that the days are warming up so I can go out for daily walks. And thank goodness that I live somewhere remote enough that social distancing is a breeze. I try to limit the time I spend reading up on what is happening out in the world - I could make myself crazy worrying about it all.
Be well, everyone.

I think your quilt is looking beautiful, what a great idea! It's always frustrating when a project takes longer than we've anticipated but I'm always glad I take the time to slow down and do it right. We've got the time now. I don't spend much time watching the news, too easy to get overwhelmed and depressed. Enjoy those walks, very important for mental health. Blessings!
I see another good solution to use up some of my floral prints. I am not overly happy with the layout of the one I am working on now. It really would have been better if I could have taken it to the church fellowship hall and played with the blocks when I could see all at once. I've already had one month of down time and am wondering how I will last through one more. Without my usual schedule I don't even remember what day it is.
You'll be finished with that quilt top soon. Nice borders.
What an interesting idea to do with the florals you don't like. The boarders you have created look great. Walks are so good for us right now, especially after reading about some of the crazy news. I hope some the top is coming along nicely now.
