Round Robin ~ Jan's

The next round in the Round Robin, is Jan's block. Here is what it looked like when I got it.

I thought about continuing with an easy applique vine, but after doodling a bit on the computer I decided not to go there.

Thinking it needed a bit more pizazz, & something less traditional, I did an improvisational

pieced border. I'd been reading Rayna Gillman's book, Create  Your Own Free-Form quilts, which gave me the inspiration, & reminded me of Ricky Tims' Caveman quilting, in the way she pieces. Here is how it came out.

I also added just a touch of embellishment by hand couching yarn bits on 3 sides.
