Quilting Frames and Fillers - Block 13

The lazy days of summer are drawing to a close, actually, who am I kidding it's been an awesome busy summer!  This Frame is simple, but it might be a little more difficult to work into some blocks. Maybe it could be used turned in opposite directions around a center block.

Here is my original sketch.  I decided to put the echo on the inside to preserve the nice clean points. 

Spoiler Alert...

I like how these two fillers contrasted each other today!  We got Matchstick and Sharp Stippling.   When matchstick came around on the spinny wheel I was a little scared because  I just didn't know how I was going to work it into this block (I knew it would come eventually but was hoping for a different frame 😆)  

But I think I was able to successfully execute it.  I suppose the only really noticeable mistake is the twisted seam in the center (Oh well, it has been noted and I will make sure not to do it again).  

The Sharp Stipple is a fantastic design that works up really fast and adds a much different texture than regular stippling.  Leah Day is the first person I saw do this design and you can watch her video on it here:
