    I'm working on a new quilt, and can't decide if I like it better with the black inner border separating the blocks border, or without.
    First picture has the inner black border, 2nd is without, 3rd is the blocks so far.
    I would appreciate your thoughts!

    I like it with the inner border, but it is a great quilt either way.

    I love your quilt-great colors. It looks good either way. For some reason when I look at the one without the inner border there is lots of movement in the quilt. The inner border (tho it looks really nice) seems to stop the movement. This is just my VERY humble opinion. Love it!

    I like it with the inner border....but think it needs yet a very small border of another color to separate the inner black border from the black in the blocks. You could use a border as small as 1/2 in...just need a little something to break there. If there is a color that is only in the inside of the block, then that would be a good choice to use.
