    This is from the latest issue of Fabric Trends. When I saw the pattern, I knew I had to make it.I'm to the point of putting on the last border, and I'm having trouble choosing the border I like the best.
    There's 1 yard of the pink/blue, I will have to peice the borders. I think it stands out to much. I have enough of the pink/green, that I won't have to peice the borders, and I can use it to do the binding.
    What would you use.

    I think I like the pink and green. Is the center basket green?

    Funny, I have both of those fabrics, I used them in an Eleanor Burns' trip around the world.

    I like the second one best for the border.

    It is a very stunning quilt.

    If the center basket is green, then I like the pink/green!!!
    If it's blue then go with the blue!
    I'd probably go with the one that didn't have to be pieced, I don't like to piece borders if I can help it, but that's just me!!
    It's really hard to tell what the colors are from the pic!

    The basket and the 9 patches in the corners are green. There is a little blue in the 9 patches also.
