    Butterfly: You are so welcome. It was my pleasure. Actually, the picture doesn't pick up the beading very well. I just hope the beads don't get in the way as K puts the next boarder on. :roll: :)

    I'm sorry K. I never expected it to be so hard to get just the right thing for a boarder. I tried at least 3 others thinking beading was too much. But it needed the beads to set off the beautiful center. You guys make the most wonderful stuff, I'm worried I may not be able to match your skill and experience. Gwyn

    Kendra: Have you received Elle's center? It has been a little while. Also, I'm having trouble getting ideas for the undersea with the seahorse. My family suggests bubbles. Perhaps I need to consider a 2" and 3" to make a 5" boarder. Any ideas would be welcome. Gwyn

    Straight border with bubble fabric would be good or what about the ocean waves pattern in various blues?

    Oh gosh, had to go back all the way to page 9 to find it! It is really pretty. I think I would condsider a nicely pieced border bringing back the muted blue/bluegreen tones in the original center....then you might applique some seaweed on top of that? I just finished doing some applique over the top of something pieced and I like the way it looks. Whatever you come up with, I know it will be beautiful!
