    I just finished this morning! Already thinking about binding. Should I go with the dark blue of the pinwheels or another lighter color? The dark would definately "frame" it but maybe too much? Your suggestions would be awesome. :P

    Do you have a room this is planned for? You could bring out the room colour in the binding. I prefer a softer colour for the binding, whether the pink, blue or tans.

    I sell quilts on ETSY and EBAY but I wasn't decided about this one yet. It would go very nice in our guest bedroom... Thanks for answering me, all I have to ask around here is my hubby and it's always "it's real nice honey, whatever you think" bless his heart.

    That is beautiful - personally I would go with the pink or tan binding.

    The blue would look great too but I am afraid that is the first place your eyes will go, the dark binding. Or it might ground it perfectly. Let us know what ya do.

    I think the tan would be lovely. Just my opinion. I know it will be beautiful in whichever one you choose.

    I vote to continue using the pastel/tans. I think a border of the dark may be too much. That way, the dark blue pinwheels would be a eye catching center of the quilt. I love this one. It's so subtle but stunning.

    My vote is the dark blue, it would really make it "pop" out!
