About how I quilted it...ahem...(sheepish look here)...I haven't yet. Life got busy! I plan to have it quilted by July 1st. I'm not sure of the deatils yet, as details will probably change once I actually start quilting but so far here's the plan: concentric circles in the background radiating out from the leaf; straight lines in the red strips behind the light coloured leaves;, "150" and possibly "1867-2017" in the large leaf, with straight lines to fill the rest of the leaf. If I am feeling ambitious I'll quilt the abbreviations for the provinces and territories in the light leaves. In the border, who knows...canuckquilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02804830507722535614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805690613494438271.post-13595632411846420922017-06-14T10:01:12.487-05:002017-06-14T10:01:12.487-05:00Good Morning.

I have grosgrain ribbon that looks just like that. I think I got it at Wal-Mart. I would suggest shrinking the ribbon before using it on a quilt.MoeWesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13316286980472111253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805690613494438271.post-8920128329988620362017-04-08T19:00:25.682-05:002017-04-08T19:00:25.682-05:00Thanks--got it.
