    I'm making a donation quilt for our grandkids' school silent auction. I agonized over a pattern, then chose this "twisted 9 patch". I wanted to mix up the colors all over it. Have I gone too far??

    I've got all the squares made and joined into groups for QAYG. My plan after that is to add a white-on-white border, a colored border (one of the colors from the patches) and then another WOW border.

    I don't want to be embarrased or to embarrass the kids with an "ugly" quilt! :roll:

    What do you think?? :thumbup: :thumbdown: :thumbup: :thumbdown: :?:

    I think it is great. Love the colors. I think a white border and then a dark purple border would be pretty. Do you know what your Wow border is going to be?
