    Thank you so much for the suggestions. I used 2 Moda charm packs and I still have a couple left over so I could use that for a piano key border. I wondered about maybe doing HST for a border, I hope I'm using the correct terminology! I'll post a picture when it's done. I'm hoping to get one of the quick jelly roll ones mostly tonight. It's blues and greens so I'm thinking about a cream border on that one.

    I would choose the color that is the most recessive. It will bring out that color very well.

    I think the light aqua color would look great!

    I agree. I would use either the pink or the teal. The pink really jumped. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

    I would choose the teal or the brown. I always like the brighter or darker colors as bordesr. Just seems to finish the quilt nicely....in MHO.

    I would go with a bright. Maybe something in that aqua color you have in it.
