    I like your first photo, I don't think it needs another border. Love the quilt!

    I like it the way it is. The only thing I would suggest was to make the green border bigger, maybe 6 inches.

    Wow, Judi - that is beautiful. Love the alternate layout, it really changes to look of the pattern.

    I like the two narrow borders you have on now. If you want/need to grow it a bit, I'd either go with a pieced border - even something simple, like piano keys or 4-patches. Or something neither as dark as the darker brown, or as light a the tan/cream.

    Thanks for sharing your wonderful quilt.

    Yes, I agree with no border. It already looks "framed."
