    That's very pretty, and I like the little "checkered" parts. I think they would be nice in the border as well (somehow).

    Hi Everyone,,
    Thanks you all for your great ideas...I purchased the fabric at Joannes and have not been able to find more of it. The paisley fabric is made by Fabric Traditions. copyright 2009. I believe the name of it was Morrocan Paisley.
    This quilt was suppose to be for my sister...the real dilemma is that I did not buy the fabric to make a queen size quilt... my hubby loved the colors and pattern - wants it for our bed..
    So far I took off the cream and brown border.. trying to piece enough to make two more rows, then a few floating stars set with the cream . add the cream and brown border on the bottom. then have the pasiley bed ruffle.
    Keeping my fingers crossed that this will work!

    I agree, the paisley fabric would make an awesome outter border and not show dirt as much as the cream. What's the name of this pattern? I really like it. You've done a fabulous job...
    I do so agree with the above.
