    Any suggestions for borders? I still have a couple rows to put on. I have the blocks finished, just have to add the rows.

    The greens are brighter in person. I just can't get them to show up in the pic.

    How nice of you to share your work! Thank you :)

    Very nice quilt and my choice for binding would be the green to tie everything together. Of course, you are the best judge of what should be done.

    I would have dearly loved to share the joy of quilting with my mom or daughter. This board is like family for me :) :) :)

    Please continue your participation on this board........

    Piecefully yours,
    Kay Susan

    Looks great. I would probably go for the green borders as well if you have enough fabric. Set the quilt on the floor and take a piece of each of your border "thoughts" and take a picture and then look at your pictures and see which one you like better. I tend to put a multicolor (ie floral, pattern, etc) as my outside larger border but use a smaller border to stop the pattern first. But it all depends on the pattern you are using and the fabrics you have left. Some times my choice of boarder is because that is what I have enough left of.

    I'd use the green as a border, too :-)
