Selecting a border - hard decision.


I made these 2 borders sample borders to select which one would suit best for the shawl.
The first is a part of the square (i did not make that one) from Betty Salpekar and the other is the border from the Rainey sisters. I need a 3" border to get a decent width for the shawl. The first one got the most votes. I'm still thinking..... hmmm, "in-pin safety pin"

My 10th and last Square for the shawl by Vicki Server

This square personifies Love for the heart, anchor for hope and the last one for faith. All three essentials to support anything that is important cause for anyone. Without these support is not possible. Be it for any kind of struggle....

Made it as the last square but was glad to have it done to complete it.

Now that i have the 10 squares its time to connect them and get the border going.

My 9th Square by Barbara McIntire

These cables went well with the rest, so made it in time available. Liked the fluidity of the cables. These are a bit similar to the ones on my laptop, so though it was not totally new, the results look a lot difference and boosted my confidence.
