I don't suppose her daughter (my neice) will even see what I can see as she doesnt even sew. I am so disppointed.

I like the quilt now that I have seen the whole quilt. I like your idea of the blue border. Go narrow (2 ') on it and the a 4-6 ' on the outside border. Gives you a nice area for special quilting. I like the colors, they are bright and cheerful.

Try to remember that you are saving something started when the quilter was starting to fade just a bit. The small amount of off matched seams are very unnoticable, We do have a 5 foot rule and no quilt police on site, so try not to worry too much about it, It is a treasure for the daughter and she will not notice it at all. I promise

I think it looks great and I bet the daughter will not even notice if there are a few places where it doesn't match up to your liking. She will love it because her Mom was the one who started it and you was thoughtful enough to finish it!! I think the colors are beautiful together. Just finish it and when it is quilted it will add alot to it!!
