To quilt or not to quilt?
#1
So here's the quilt top I've been working on. I wanted to do vertical sashing (as in the pic) with a border of red, and then blue. However the red is coming out of the backing fabric and I just don't think I can spare anymore for more borders. I need top and bottom on this one, so my question is, does the blue border look too out of place with the red sashing?
Also...lol I am playing around with the idea of hand quilting this. This scares me because 1. I have NEVER hand quilted ANYTHING and 2. I have no idea what pattern to do if I decide to hand quilt it...I'm just not sure if I should quilt it or do my usual and just tie it.
Any thoughts?

I really like the blue borders. I like to hand quilt but absolutely limit myself to small projects. I get impatient to be done so on a quilt this size, I would definitely machine quilt. Have you ever done SID with your walking foot?
