Additional border…

Today, I have people in working on some plumbing.  These are the same folks, from Tri-County Water Services who replaced my well pump.  I have always had hard water at the house.  Dan Hershey, who co-owns the company with his son Brent, also said I have very high PH levels which area wells are known to have, so I needed not only a water softening system, but a water neutralizer as well.  So they are here improving my water quality, replacing some faucets that were getting really bad so that my pipes, faucets and water heaters will last longer and the deposits of minerals and the like will not line up and cake in my tub, sinks and washer.

I took advantage of the time that they were here and I could not go anywhere to add a border to the black and white strip quilt I had made at the quilting retreat in November.  I had decided that a little border of a lime green would look nice against the black and white.  I found a material that was the green I was looking for and the design on the green was black and white.  Then I added a black and white border onto the green.  Once it is quilted, I will see whether a small green border or a black and white border will look best.

Here is how it looked when I got back from retreat.

Here it is today.  I think it looks really nice.
