Good for you for asking "what's wrong"--sometimes we are hesitant to do that. Folks on here are always willing to help out--isn't it great! By now, you've pretty well figured out what was wrong. Good luck ripping.

First I thought it's the blue diamonds but looking at it closer I find the colours and patterns of the border don't match the middle part, it's too "busy", takes away from the pretty center. Good luck!!!

The border is very nice but I don't think that it goes with the dresden. I think a color that goes a little better with the dresden would look nicer and maybe put cardinals instead of the blue birds. I just can't match all the colors to make it look right to me and that's just my opinion. It looks like nice work. I think sometimes it's hard to match colors so they look great together. Good Luck.

I agree with everyone else, the border is too strong for the dresden. I'd go with a softer border utilizing some of the colors from the dresden. This border just overpowers the softness of the dresden. I don't think the embroidery would work either. Perhaps the piano keys that someone else suggested would work better.
