For another suggestion and if you have more purple fabric, might you think on the lines of using a smaller red strip with purple on both sides similar to a pinstripe? For myself I like wide outer borders so I can play with quilting patterns but that's just me. You did a great job of the quilt.

Very pretty quilt. I love purple and red together.

I like your quilt the way it is, it's beautiful.

Thanks for the kind words and the suggestions. I have both borders cut, and I am still deciding on exactly which sizes to use. I can always cut them down, but they are cut at 2 1/2 inches and 6 inches. I am making myself clean house tomorrow before I do any quilting. That should give me time to think.

It's a gorgeous quilt! I love log cabins and how many different ways there are to configure the blocks! I usually don't do borders, but when I need to, I tend to do a narrow inner and the outer about 2.5-3x wider that than. Take pictures with your digital camera and see if that helps you get a better feel for size. If it were my quilt, I'd probably end up doing a 2" finished inner and 5" finished outer border.

I think a dark purple like the third border color I see on the left ( in the picture) would look great. Perhaps wider than is showing. Beautiful top.

How would someone use Fibonacci numbers to make a border? I don't understand.
