    Default Pieced border on Cat Quilt?

    I'm doing a variation of a cat quilt design. I'm making two, one in purples/pinks and one in blues/greens.
    I would really like to add a pieced border to the blue one but I'm struggling with coming up with a new idea. Here is the purple one (finished) and a mock up of an example pieced border for the blue one. I'm just not sure I like it. Advice or other border options would be appreciated.

    This is a great pattern! Is the blue one from EQ? Did you make the pattern?
    I like the border on the blue, but the solid corner stones are bugging me. I think you should do a triangle in each corner stone so it connects them.

    Really like these two quilts. I like the purple and pink, but absolutely love the blue. I have never seen them before. Would love to know where to get the pattern.
