I am making a quilt for my daughter for Christmas. I am afraid it is too much on the flowers. It now calls for a 3 inch border of which I am using the flower fabric on. ? is do I need to add a small say 1 inch inner border of orange which is going to be the backing and binding also, to give it punch? Help Please. Pat
P.S. Hope the pictures come up as I have never tried to put one in.

I used this color, because she likes orange. Do you think it is Ugly? Honest opinions please

I think it's lovely. As it is, with the floral border, it has a nice soft look. If you want to punched it up a bit, add the orange strip before the floral border. Either one will make a lovely quilt, it just depends what "look" you're going for.
