    I'm working on the same quilt right now, but in pastels - here's a picture.

    Granddaughter made this - I'm quilting it for her.

    Decide which color in the quilt you want to pop. Adding the border will cause one of the colors in the quilt to really stand out.

    What is your favorite color in the quilt, then go for it.
