I don't think I want a border...I'll just do a binding in the green in the photo. Maybe for quilting I'll just follow the wave and echo from there. Other ideas? I'm very nervous about quilting it. :shock: I'd rather have a long armer stretch it out.

VERY PRETTY - THE COLORS ARE AMAZING!

It turned out beautifully, and the green is perfect for the binding. I wouldn't want to quilt over all those seams. Turning it over to a longarmer is a great idea.

There's a long armer on the board who offered to quilt it for free! How amazing is that??? It'd be awhile before she could get to it... still thinking. I've never sent anything out before. I get my other bargello back in a week or so... I know she'd love to do it. I was trying to save some $$ by being independent. :roll:

I think the starch trick worked!! I need to show all of you... but I guess it should have a separate post.

Your quilt is gorgeous!
Starch trick? I saw your earlier post with the dipping lower edge. I've had that happen too and just sliced it off. I'm curious about a trick that will straighten an edge. Unfortunately I did not read all the posts before. Any chance of sharing again?
