    Default Is this too much pink?
    Is this too much pink? Should I put a different border on it? Or maybe no border? What do you think?

    Lovely quilt, can't wait to see it finished. I love pink and would add a narrow 1" border of blue or green and then a wide 4" border of dark dark pink. Any border you use will only make it a standout quilt.

    I would choose one of the darker colors in the quilt and make a border with that and it would show up more and be a nice "frame" for the whole quilt. It's very pretty!

    I love it. I think a dark border would be perfect.

    So, so vintage looking. I see vintage quilts like this on ebay, many using feedsacks! You have a great one going!
    Yeap, agree with the rest, either no border or a darker border.

    A small border of navy and then back to the pink. The navy will make it pop. That quilt is stunning.
