Should there be more?
I did get a picture that shows the stenciling I did on the border. Tell me, is it enough of should I add more to the quilting that will be done? If you were to add more what would it be? I am new to this and want to give it my all. As Karen McTavish says "pick the hardest thing and do it. You won't regret the result." (or something along those lines)

Two sides marked
Well I'm working on marking the borders now. This is a tricky area. I hoped it would all fit in just perfect but I have to admit that isn't the case. I'm having to do some creative thinking and marking when it comes to the border corners. But with that said I will say I have 2 sides done and have succeeded so far. I did come up against an issue today but I'm happy to say I used a wash cloth to remove the water erase marker I'm using and I found a way I can work the corner so it looks nice and gets the corner up where it should be. Pictures to come. Maybe tonight.
On a personal note, we went water walking yesterday and I think I walked a bit too much. Today is slow moving for me. I don't know if I will get all the borders done today. If not I will finish marking tomorrow.

MARKING
Well I'm still marking the quilt. I can't believe I've been marking 3 days and still have one more to go. I should finish marking tomorrow. I'll post some pictures of the markings tomorrow. I don't remember so much marking on Angels quilt but I marked about 1/2 of that quilt as I went along. Tomorrow after I finish marking I will press the backing if need be and start pinning it tomorrow. I should be finished penning on Wednesday. Thursday I have some letters I need to get written and either Thursday or Friday I should get my new lap hoop and I will have the quilt ready to start!
