Pieced border on Cat Quilt?
#22
Thanks everyone for all the links and advice on the border options! I like the fish border idea a lot (I was originally thinking about mice, but I couldn't find an easy/quick basic pattern) and am also playing with connecting the corners as suggested.
To everyone who asked, here is a link to the pdf of the original pattern, called Kool Kats Kwilt and made by Patti Carey.

The blue one I did in EQ7, I will be happy to send out the PJ7 file to anyone interested.

Played around with the ideas proposed and now I have a couple great options! Its going to be tough to decide which one... although I'm leaning towards the fishies because I intend this quilt to go to a little girl who has leukemia.

A great big YES from me. They are both great, and I really love the blue one and the border too! Leave it like that. It is just beautiful!!!
Wow, you added more borders, but I still like the first one best. But, doggone it, since it is your quilt, I guess you will choose. You do nice work. Congratulations.

If you're taking votes, mine is for the fishies. It's a little less busy, and you could embellish with small crystals/rhinestones for an eye on each fish (depending on how old the girl is - certain ages like a little bling). Just a few random thoughts. These look really great and she is going to love her blanket no matter which design you go with.
