Another failed attempt at posting a photo!
There is a border of sashing around the top now.
I think I will do 1 or 2 rows of HST's at the top and bottom using the 5 ins fabric and if enough bits a single row of small squares (HST) along the sides.
I can only try and hope I don't have to unpick :S

Ive now added some sashing but wouold like ideas to extend its length. Lots of 5ins wide strips but dont teally want to use stripes

I want to maintain some zing  ::thinks:: ::thinks::

I was thinking about a row or 2 of HST - any thoughts?

This is now about 60 ins x 63 ins. It needs to be about 72 ins long

Just had that  connection message again.

No photo is same and I posted on another forum with no problem

 No luck
Any ideas  :headbang:

Well I'm stuck. No idea where to go now not helped by that I can't upload a photo for ideas.
The quilt is now 63ins x 60ins.
It needs and extra row or to 2 to lengthen it so it is about 72ins long. I have fabric in short lengths mostly about 5 ins wide but as it is scrappy abd none of the 'scraps are consistent in size

I'll have another attempt at uploading a photo.

I keep trying to post a photo but it's saying it's invalid.
I only have a mobile as my tablet has decided not to work.

Here I am in the SR.
I have finally managed to patch the patches that I was struggling with yesterday.

The quilt currently measures 60 x 60. I need to make it 60 x 72. I have some sashing to go around and am thinking of extending the other 2 sides using HST's if I have enough fabric scraps.  The ones I'm thinking of using are 5 ins x WOF mostly.  I want to add a bit of zing so  ::thinks::

I've spent a lot of time patching up the patchwork. Not as easy as it sounds :headbang:
