    I also agree- add some of the blue fabric in the border.

    I agree with this. The blue would just be a reminder of what is in the quilt.

    I think I would finish it up and give it your cat instead. He/she loves it! :shock: It is very pretty.

    I agree. Either the brown or the orange blend into the quilt. I think you need a different border to seperate it. Blue would be very appealing! Blue and orange are opposites on the color wheel (what's that called?) and blue mixed with orange make brown, so blue would be perfect! How's that for logic!?!?

    She loves every one. She acts as my quality inspector-if she doesn't like it, there must be something wrong with it.

    Orange for sure and binding should be brown. I love your little one checking it out!

    I like the orange and brown borders with the blue binding, great colors for a child.

    Isn't it fun to play with different colors?

    This is what I think too. The orange is brighter and the brown binding will frame it nicely. Love your inspector!
