    i can picture a thin border/piping of red around the black and white, white 'setting' triangles, and a combo black/red border. whatever you do... finish it. so much work is already invested. be sure to show us the results

    I don't have a Canadian mind, but I think Tartan has it right on point. I think it would make a lovely table topper with the points hanging over a round table, or even laying flat if the table is quiet large. It's too pretty to be put back in a box and stored away.
    What to do with it, if you don't like it, give it to me. LOL

    Well, My eyes do the jitterbug when I look at it. Please finish it. It would be a beautiful table topper.

    I vote for this idea! I think it would look stunning!

    I would definitely not use it as a pillow. I think it would make a very pretty table topper finished in black as you've started to do with a border of an accent color that is the color of your drapes or your sofa, something that would tie it in with your furnishings.

    It needs to be finished. It is very lovely. To pretty to not finish. Years from now you will be glad you did.

    I like what QuiltNNan said. Finish it with a very thin border of red and than a couple borders. It is beautiful. You will be so happy when you get it finished.

    if you didn't want to add the inserted pieces, you could trim it in a circle. that would be very interesting after appliqued to a backing piece. try it when you are ready.
