I finished the last block, added all the embroidery and buttons to the blocks that needed them, and assembled the blocks over the weekend.
At the moment, this will finish at 48" by 48". The pattern calls for a small inner border and a larger outer border. If I add these it will finish at about 60" by 60". I'm undecided as to whether or not I want to add these. The best fabric I have in my stash for the wider outer border is a dark green tone-on-tone very similar to fabrics already used in the center. It will look nice but I'm not sure it will really add anything to the design. It will just make this bigger. I've emailed the folks I'm making this for to see what they want me to do. Until I hear back it will wait.

I think it looks perfect as is!
This is just adorable. What's the pattern called. I might just have to go shopping! ;-)
