And it now looks like this. A subtle change with a row of 1.5 inch squares. This border gives the eyes a break between the busyness of the X and + blocks and next week's log cabin blocks.
I should really make a start on a couple of the butterfly blocks for the last border as they are the most challenging of the blocks for this quilt and although the strips are cut out, that's as far as I've progressed with border 6.
