Wash Day

I made this throw from 16 leftover Twisted Sisters blocks made from Three Cats fabrics and added a border using pieced offcuts but I still had some fabric left so I kept on going which made it look rather odd. I added some ties in the outer borders using Shetland wool and show the before and after pictures. A hot wash felted them up into pleasing bobbles which shouldn't work loose. I'll now add buttons (red) and some applique. Gosh  - am I actually embellishing?? A rather dirty word in my quilty lexicon. No I'm securing the layers!
