Along with the piecing.....is lots and lots of pressing.

Kathi is working on the very pale strip quilt

Time to pin on the borders...

Frieda and Betty are working on the brighter strip quilt

Yes, lots more pressing...

Frieda and Betty have 2 borders added so far...

3 Borders.......it's beautiful!

Wish I could show you the completed quilt tops...

I will photograph the quilt tops next week and post them here.
