Need Advice on border for Crystal Star Pattern
#31
Agree with others ... the style of the star (gorgeous BTW) and the border (pretty in it's own right) clash .. oil and vinegar!!
I personally like it the way it is ... narrow yellow border and wide black border - it frames the star beautifully.
If however it needs to be larger .... perhaps narrow the outer black border by half, add another yellow narrow border, then add a wide black border to the finished size that you need. So ... narrow yellow, narrow black, narrow yellow, wide black. The end effect will be a double yellow "frame" in black.

I love your star and I like the border fabric, just not together. The border fabric seems very traditional to me where the star does not so my objection is with the style of the border fabric not the colors.
