This top was finished and almost big enough, I just added some borders to bring it up a bit in size. I was running low on the polka dot fabric so I had to improvise.
I think I'll bind this one in black to pick up on this neat black fabric in some of the blocks. I have no idea what the pattern in called since I didn't piece it, but I'm calling it Chain Links.
I was also given a set of a dozen sampler blocks from a block of the month project. I set these using a textured black with highlights of blue and grey in it. Don't the bright fabric glow against the black?
Remember, I am always accepting donations of quilts, tops, and blocks toward Covered in Love! These comfort quilts are given to the family to take home when a patient passes away in my local hospital.
Starting this month I'm posting a request for specific blocks each month so if you want to help out you can make a block or two. Find the post for this month here; we're making flying geese blocks.

Chain links is a great top and your improv border looks great! And the blocks set on the black background is stunning! I think the cute picture of Rory, just because might have stolen the show ;) SO adorable!
