    OK!! I am going with the border!! So off I go again to sew!! You probably wont see the quilt again until I get done quilting it. (And that could be a LONG time since I hand quilt)

    That quilt is wonderful. I love the border, too, and think that should be the binding also. I would quilt something fancy in the border, and not so fancy in the blocks. I'm a hand quilter, too. I love the rhythym of hand quilting. It gives me much satisfaction.
    What a beautiful piece of art you have made.

    Melissa, your quilt is wonderful!!
    I like the border also and hope you consider the same fabric for the binding. Fantastic job!

    What a treasure! You've done such a beautiful job! And won't it be fun to have a sampling of all those wonderful fabrics? Can't wait to see the hand quilting! I'm in awe already!

    I agree with everyone else; the border sets it off nicely! This is really a scrumtious quilt!!!! Can't wait to see it after you get it quilted (1 week? 2 weeks?)
