I'm back in the saddle again! Working on "Topography" with my cat buddy, Vinnie Posted by Virginia "Ginnie" Leiner on June 26, 2014 at 11:41pm View Blog

Loving how this quilt is coming together but I have run into a slight problem - it is too narrow. This is a wedding quilt for my "third" daughter, Artemis and her husband Tom and it is (at this time) 45 x 84 inches. I thought of adding a row of blocks down the right side. My husband suggested something sand colored so as not to take too much attention away from this "slice of earth and sky" I have created. While talking to my quilting daughter Becky on facebook tonight, she suggested I tilt it slightly and then make it square again with blockwork in the corners I will need to create to make it square. Since I am really trying to quilt outside the box with this one, that idea is appealing to me! Here is a better picture, sans Vincenzo Gato.Time for bed. I will think about this "problem" for awhile and come up with a solution I am sure. Notice how the "earth layers" have shifted in the bottom print.

Outside the box...outside the box.... Keep quilting! Ginnie
