Hourglass Finish

 

The ingredients are all ready to make this into a quilt top in time to submit tomorrow for Project Quilting 15.4 - Hourglass.

Stitching 1" wide strips in-between two 1.5" wide strips for the border pieces.

Plenty of the precious dyed fabric is left after making the border strips.

I think it's going to all fit together.

A little rearranging and now the top is ready to be quilted and finished today.

I keep thinking of the Days of Our Lives soap opera opening theme while working with this hourglass idea.  "Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives." True true true.
