Quilt from Men's Hawaiian Shirts, Part 5

A final finish, two months in the making, the quilt top patchwork pieced from men's Hawaiian shirts. 


It measures in at 72" x 88" still not enough to be king-sized. It needs to measure at least 92" x 92". Each side needs 10" more of fabric in width and 2" on top and bottom in length.  

Before borders

Here are the two fabrics I auditioned for the borders - I went with the wrong-side dolphins. The muted plaid will be used for the top and bottom borders, possibly the backing.



Post update - here is the quilt top in its final form with the dolphin fabric borders.
