I love, love, love, your sunbonnet sues. They are adorable. I have read most of the comments and tend to agree that a border in red or the piano keys would really make a statement for your beautiful Sues. A more detailed border doesn't always overpower the quilt, just adds punch.

Looks much more finished now and coordinated. Be proud it is wonderful, great embroidery. I do embroidery but not as much as I did in the past - so appreciate your great work.

If you go with the red, don't make it too bright...it would detract from the delicacy of the quilt.
Go to the fabric store, LQS, or whatever, and be sure to take your top with you this time!
edited after seeing results.....OK, I was wrong! it turned out well. Glad you kept the other border!
