[@Hazel-r9p]

AWESOME PROJECT BLOCKS!!! Love the border and the colors are beautiful!

[@FutureCatNZ]

Thanks!

Hi Future! I love this border, and you very clearly explained what you were doing (and why). I look forward to seeing the rest of the round robin and your contributions to it. Best wishes to you and your family. Have fun!

[@FutureCatNZ]

Thanks! I hope you enjoy the rest of the round robin - we've been having a lot of fun with it.

Oh boy! Very pretty! My birdhouse came out at 6.25 unfinished. So I will add 🤔 this much to each side to make it 8.5 inches.
The owls are great! Marion in Oregon

Love those Owl blocks! so darn cute! awesome job can't wait to see how it all comes together. Big hugs

[@KelleysQuiltsandCruises]

Hi LauraLynn!

[@FutureCatNZ]

Thanks! Finding that owl fabric that so perfectly fit the birdhouses may have started a bit of a fussy-cutting trend in our group :-)

[@marionbarber984]

Dear future cat,
It took some back and forth with this video and then I finally downloaded the instructions. I did it! Thank you!

[@FutureCatNZ]

I'm glad you managed to download the pattern! Hope you have fun sewing!

[@bitspiecesquilting]

Fabulous tutorial FutureCat! And your blocks look amazing. This was a good learning experience for me to wrap my brain around the mirror image blocks and how to visualize what's needed to complete the border. Thanks for working on this with us.

[@FutureCatNZ]

Thanks! I drew a lot of sketches of the hourglasses to get my head round the mirror images :-)

[@victoriawebster668]

Very well done. Clear and the printed directory are also very helpful. Thanks

[@FutureCatNZ]

Thanks! Glad you're enjoying it!

[@KelleysQuiltsandCruises]

That was a great explanation my New Zealand friend! You are a much better teacher than I am. FutureCat is right everyone, put your mirror blocks in separate piles. It's helpful. This is a very good pattern/design and fun to sew.

[@FutureCatNZ]

Thanks! I don't often film tutorials, so I wasn't sure how well it would go :-)

[@Hazel-r9p]

[@ShadowMoonFarms]

LOVE THIS BORDER EFFECT. tHANKS FOR SHARING

[@FutureCatNZ]

Thanks! I hope you have fun making it!

[@sheilacraft5027]

I struggle with hourglass blocks sew, I'll do these since I need the practice🤪

[@FutureCatNZ]

You'll get plenty of practice with this border :-)

[@LisaLisa-zl9vu]

So in this example if you want a larger quilt you would make for example 4 block 1’s and then 4 borders for the blocks and 4 of any other additions to complete block 1? I’ll admit it’s confusing but I’m slowly catching on!

[@FutureCatNZ]

That's right. Three of each block would make roughly a single/twin sized quilt, four of each will be more like a queen. And you can add sashing between your blocks to make it even bigger.
