You could use a narrow navy border then a green
Christmas print with navy and red in it. LC |

I would add a dark border, red probably!

It is to small though, Any ideas of what I can do to make it bigger? I don't have any more of the same fabrics left. It is 51.5" by 61.5" Thanks! |
That is cute I like the red reindeer.

It's adorable, my first quilt was a rail fence too! I agree with the others who suggest adding a red and a white border.
|
Nice work and I would add a red border to it .
|
I think it turned out beautifully! A wonderful twist on a 2-color quilt :-D
|
I'd say a red and then a white or reverse that and bind with whatever you use for your inner border. It's very cute, you should be proud of it, I would be.

Fabulous!

It is easy to get reds that really clash. You could also add a very thin inner border or a flange of black. (A flange is a folded, pressed, cloth inserted into the seam. You could use a strip that is anywhere from 1" to 2" wide. It is usually pressed towards the body of the quilt.)
