    I would call it "softened traditional" with the pinks and light greens instead of the reds and dark greens.

    I like it - it's very soft appearing.

    when putting borders on a quilt if you would measure through the middle of the quilt both up and down and cross wise then cut your borders that measurement and ease in the quilt to fit the borders would eliminate your problem hope this helps good luck at the show it is a very pretty quilt
