The Border Finish
I loved using this variegated turquoise, burgundy, purple thread in the border. It's fun to quilt and looks like the fun it was to quilt.
Now to sign... I experimented a bit... using a similar value thread as the grass... then outlined with a contrasting value. Kind of fun. I wouldn't do this on a competitive quilt because I don't want the signature to distract from the overall image... but this is an exhibit piece... and a postcard at that. Everybody signs their postcard so it can be read.
