Okay I've lurked long enough and today is the day! Besides I need some advise on how to/or if I should put a border on this quilt?

I've worked on it about a year, on and off, and it's foundation pieced...am considering entering it into the county fair this year if I get if totally finished...

Welcome from Chelsea!How about a thin white border to frame it in, and then a wider blue?

Welcome from West Virginia. Yes, I would border it, it finishes the quilt and frames it. I agree, thin white border with a wider blue. Love it, very pretty!

Welcome from southern Indiana, and yes, I agree a thin white border with a wider blue enhance off your beautiful quilt.
