    I would like a border on it also. I like borders on my quilts for the most part.

    I like Jan's in VA ideas. Whichever way you go, you created some very nice quilts.

    I'd put a small boarder to frame it.

    Absolutely. It's a great quilt and when you get a darker border on it it will be even better.

    I would border it. Maybe a darker salmon color or dark blue.

    I'd add a thin border of a red, then a larger border in a darker aqua. JMHO~

    I think a border with the orange and put a thin strip of aqua in the center of the orange.
    I Think that would set it off perfectly.

    I definitely think borders - peach on the first one and aqua on the second. Just MHO.

    IMHO . . . I agree with most of the others - a narrow border followed by a wider one. But..if that's not what you are feeling, what about a dark (Aqua maybe) binding that is just a tad bit wider than a 'normal' binding just to give it a frame?
