While I was on vacation this past week for Thanksgiving, I added the final borders to this quilt top. I always thought of it as a picnic quilt with a watermelon theme, hence the picnic tablecloth check for the borders.
I sewed the center blocks at Quilt Camp in October. I'd gotten a jelly roll called seedless watermelon for the center blocks. I added some black to put the seeds back in [Wink!]. The light accent is really a light green to simulate the rind part of the watermelon.
Nic to have it done this far, though I can't say when the rest will be finished ...
