I took a class on this block the other day & this is what I came up with. This is just the top so far. I still have to add a border and get it quilted. Any suggestions on the border? Thanks, Sharon

I like this pattern....and the colors are great together. I would go with maybe black and white check border with red binding.

A great pattern! I'd go with a black and white checkerboard with red binding. Or piano keys would be nice too. :D :D

That is really eye-catching! I always have trouble deciding on borders too; seems I get the top made then get stuck on the borders. So I'll be no help here...
