    I like the idea of a dark border to help the eye stop.

    I certainly agree with this advice.

    Wow! You've been wonderfully busy! Nice work on all. This might be a bit late, but I'd use a dark border to frame it.

    The hunters star - I just love it! If you need to make the quilt bigger I suggest bordering - narrow dark, narrow light, dark wide and done. If you are happy with the size, just bind it with the dark.

    The baby quilts are so sweet! That grand baby will be nice and toasty!

    I don't think l would border your lovely hunters star. I would just do the binding in the dark fabric.
