Nice wallhanging - it almost makes me wish there was some snow outside ... almost ... lol
Love it! |
I would do two...
one light in side and then your darkest colour... |
It's a cute and fun hanging!
I see a darker blue that goes with both your church and snowflake backgrounds. I'd also do an inset flange ..... so dark blue, then narrow flange and then dark blue again. Bind in the dark blue. For the flange ... I think a white will really make those snowflakes pop and somewhat join them into an overall snowy effect. BTW .... I was looking for snowflake fabric yesterday, and wish I could have found what you have. By chance, could you let me know the selvage info? Please? and Thanks! |
First of all, I love your quilt! It is so pretty. I think maybe two borders would be good, maybe that teal church background, and the coral color in the quilt. If you just do one border, the teal would be nice.

You could go with any color in the quilt. I would use something plain, like a marble or solid to offset the busy prints. I like to lay out a few and audition them before I decide. Some are just ok, some will make the center pop.

i would go with one of the dark colors you used in your piecing...many possibilites...:-)
|
Is it a factor where it is going to be hung, i.e. on a light wall or on a dark wall?
|
Reallly great job. I also think any of the colors in the quilt!
|
I think a nice green or cream border will look very nice.
|
My idea would be a white border with any of the colors as binding. I love the quilt!
