{Post 1,036} Braided Borders

Here are the 4 borders for Bricks in the Barnyard.  I cut the rest of the pieces this AM so I could get them all mixed in.  I am adding one piece to all 4 at one time, then pressing.  Going well, but I need a nap.

I stuck with higher contrast darker fabrics for the center.  I'm using a lot of my lights up here in the borders.  I think there is a good mix of color value.

The last 10 days or so I've had a headache of mammoth proportions.  Went to my chiropractor yesterday and today for adjustments.  Hoping things will settle down soon.  Fortunately, I don't work, so I can pretty much rest whenever I want.
