    I want to add borders to my Granddaughter Cailtan's Christmas Quilt. I am thinking.. First yellow then a section of More Candy and then a wider band of Black with iridescent dots.

    What is your opinion?

    I like yellow with it, maybe the yellow as the first border instead of middle?

    Yellow / candy/ dots :thumbup:

    I think the yellow ends the middle of the quilt so it makes it look more finished- if that makes sense :wink:
