I love the quilt and your color choices. Great Job!

I think I would go with one of the prints . for me it would connect all the colors since the black and pink are already in the borders. Try what I am learning to do ..Fold a strip of each of the colors and lay them along side the quilt. step backa nd see which one floats your boat. smile....Great quilt for a first timer.

Great job for a first quilt!

Beautiful quilt, love you choice of colour. I personally would do Black binding. Or, even maybe one of the greys. If you have left overs of the greys you could joint them and make the binding from that. Just a thought.

Wow! Great job! I would do pink. I think black would look misplaced.

How wonderful! You're a natural.

Delicious colors, great job. SITD is a good idea for a first quilt. As for thread, I'd suggest you do a sample with different colors of thread on the different fabrics, that way you'd know if you really did or did not like the result before you were committed to the whole thing. For long lines of straight stitching, I found that blue tape on top is a great marker and helps keep the fabric straight too. I use the same tape a couple of times before it doesn't stick too well. Have fun, glad you've joined the gang!

i agree with tartan. one of those black/white prints would be lovely on the binding.
