First border completely attached. I am liking this quilt! Remembering my experience with Ms Cha Cha vs continuous strip preparation, I executed a "plan." Ms Cha Cha and I engaged in strenuous, active play. We played with all of her favorite toys - one by one. She ran. She jumped. She climbed. She danced about like a Halloween cat.
