    Love the 2nd option, double border. Really makes the blocks in the body stand out!

    Now YOU'VE done it, ANOTHER for my notebooks. :lol: :lol:

    I like either one that has the black border. The black really makes your colors pop! Nice job.

    I like the white with black too. But if you would do the all white, I would make the binding out of all of your colors in the quilt. That would tie it all together. I have all of my 9 patch blocks done. They are all in black & whites. I'm looking forward to getting it done. I like your choice of colors. Very nice.

    Yes, My nine-patches had four white squares for "background" and then a black square in the middle and four matching colored square in the corners of each block.
