    Your corners are nicely matched, so you are doing a very good job. Keep going till it's finished...even if you slow down some, just commit to finishing. You'll be so glad you did.

    Beautiful colors, but maybe your husband is right... maybe those colors are enough. I personally like quilts like this that are done right to the edge and don't have borders!

    I wouldn't add any other color to it. Make it simple and very pretty. Love those colors together. Where did you get the fabric, those colors would work in the southwestern quilt my husband wants me to make.

    After the quilt top is together you will know if you want a border or not
    and what color. Some quilts call for a border and some are lovely without.
    I also like to decide on the binding after the top is done ~ the color makes such a big difference. What you are doing with the colors looks great! :thumbup:

    I think I have that same green from Walmart and just want to say be careful and bring a sample when you go get more. I've found that they have two different variations of this same fabric and one is darker than the other. To the point where I thought one piece of fabric had faded drastically. I found the right shade at a different Walmart, but just wanted to give you a heads up. I got the two different ones from teh same Walmart at different times.
