    I so agree....pink binding and a bit of bling (if she is old enough).

    My vote is definitely the pinwheels, they look like they belong and really set off the quilt top.

    I agree! Does have that spinning look to emphasize the caroulsel theme. So cute! The suggestions of bling by someone would also be cute but don't know the age of the child and safety would be utmost!

    Definitely go with the pinwheels! She will feel so special no matter how you end up finishing it. Your thoughtfulness is to be commended.
