This quilt has 18 rows. Each row has 15 pieces. Each row has a grouting row in between. So that's - well, you do the math and figure out how many pieces. A lot. This quilt top is now in 6 pieces. More importantly, I've made some decisions about the borders.
Once the sides and top/bottom have a row of grouting, I will add an inner border of this stony granite light fabric and then an outer border of a blue stone/brickish fabric.To the left of the quilt are some strips of bricks that will be a part of the backing. Since this is a wedding present I keep think about brick walls and marriage. However, no great analogies are coming to mind. I may have to give up on writing a meaningful note to accompany this quilt...
