I'd do a narrow black border with a wider purple outside border. I wouldn't do a black outside border beyond the purple because I think it pulls my eyes away from the beautiful bargello. Just my taste. Do what makes you feel good.

I love your border Leann -- the dark with the narrow color really sets it off as well as ties it in

I need help. This bargello is 58 x 76. It looks pretty good on Joshs bed size-wize, but I think I want another 8-12" all around. (His bed is a super-twin waterbed.)
The only fabric from the top I wanna use in the border is the dark purple. I don't have enough of the black, so I am using a solid black. I do not want the border to pull the eye from the bargello flow.
What do you think?

i think it would look better on my bed! purple is my favorite color, ya know! just sayin'. i like both options. which doesn't help much. it's so beautiful you would have to work 3 times as hard to make it less so!

I have said that I am struggling just get started. Well today I CHOSE to write down what I was putting in my mouth. I even made healthy choices. I had a snack of an orange rather than a small bag of cookies. YEA for me. And I credit you guys for reminding me to take baby steps, not criticizing me for not doing more and your interaction with each other. THANK YOU! I decided that I would do what I could this morning and if I didn't do as well for dinner then I could still be aware and it was okay. So dinner wasn't completely right, but it was much better than it normally would have been. I CAN do this!
I am going to make menus as someone had suggested. I have a couple of other things that will help with planning. Once I actually implement them, my next set of menus will be a bit easier. I think. At least I am moving in the right direction.
