    I like the red. I like the blue, too.

    What about a 1" red border with the blue, then yellow binding.

    If that is too much work, what about red border, then inset a 1/4" blue piping as you add the binding?

    ...I've seen that done somewhere, but could not find it on youtube. It might be an inset between 2 borders, or between quilt & border. Sorry, not sure.

    I love your plaid!!! You did a lovely job lining it all up. (Your kiddo will never notice your intersections.) Your quilt is totally adorable. :thumbup: :)

    I think "I" like the blue with the blue plaid and the yellow for the binding is striking. But really, any of the color choices work quite well.

    Don't worry about your plaid lining up. It looks great. I would prefer the blue sashing with the yellow binding. Greatjob.

    If the size is right, I would just put the binding on. Otherwise looks great.

    Your quilt is so cute!
    I would use the blue for a border.

    Red and gold, beautiful. The red makes the blue plaid pop.

    So cute. Love the gold and red!. If there is enough, I would use narrow gold and more of that great plaid!
