Kelly over at Charming Chatter is hosting a Quilt Club this summer. Click on the link on my left side bar and go check out what her proposal is in detail. To summarize, the Charming Girls' Quilt Club is a group that vows to finish one UFO per month this summer. If you finish a quilt top, you qualify for a $25 drawing, if you finish your top plus get it quilted, you qualify for two entries for the drawing.
The quilt top I am determined to finish this month is my Prairie Paisley quilt that I began with my friend Lisa (Stashmaster). I have been working on the little dickens and here is as far as I have gotten.
I got the third border on this weekend, and am half finished with border four. I want the fourth border pattern to be perfectly centered and have been measuring and marking.
Only two more borders to go after this easy one, and I know that this quilt is a done deal.
If you join the Club, you can see links to other people's projects, which is always inspirational. I heard about this fun activity from Carol at Brown Quilts. It appears that plenty of folks are interesting in joining in, so it will be fun to see what comes out of it. Heaven knows I can use a bit of incentive and encouragement!
Your quilt is turning out great. I like the Prairie Paisley fabric.

This is going to be a delicious quilt when you finish. Welcome to the club. See you at the end of the month if not sooner.
