    I like the blue and yellow for borders. Don't worry about the plaids not matching. That would be a nightmare to try to do. Very cute!

    Very nice. I am a fan of same color thread for applique or even invisible. But that's just me. You've done a great job, and I choose red for the border.

    Hi all,
    Well, I had a bit of a change up...you know what they say about the best laid plans...I did not have enough of the yellow orange to do the binding...and of course out of all of the fabrics I have, none of the yellows seem quite the right shade to me...so, I have ended up doing the blue around the plaid, then another row of plaid, only wider, for the very outside border...going to do the binding in the red. I am finished with the all the borders, plan to get it spray basted tomorrow, and start the quilting...whew!!...So, thanks to all of you, and I will post when I get it finished...have a good night,
    Kif

    What a nice job you did lining up the plaid! I haven't tried anything with lines in it but may try that soon. Love the quilt.
