I would go out so if it hangs over something the characters would be right side up, not upside down.

If it's bed size, etc., I'd face them out for over hang down the sides. Personally, I like them facing out even on a lap quilt.

I definitely think the 2nd picture which I would call facing in.

I would put it outside. But it is your choice really. No quilt police here.

In graphic design, the rule is to print with items facing in. Therefore, I always face pints inward.

I like the second picture!!! Really want to see the whole quilt now - Looks like its a great reproduction quilt!!!

Facing IN looks better

Borders "in" is my vote!

I say just go with whatever suits you. I don't really think that there is a "right" or "wrong" way. It's your creation. Have fun and enjoy yourself. This is only my opinion, but from looking at these pics, if I was making it myself I'd go with the bottom picture with the characters facing in. Whatever you choose, I think it's a really cute quilt!

I agree. It keeps it looking like all sides are the top.
