    Border Help

    I made a quilt top with one border in mind and then over thought it and now I can't decide which border to go with. Do I go with the printed one or the paisley? Your input has always been so helpful and I find I am in need of your thoughts. Thanks so much!

    When I saw the first one I thought nothing could beat it--but the paisley is the one to go with. The colors are perfect and make the top pop. froggyintexas

    Paisley looks great.

    Paisley has my vote. That looks great.

    I'm also for the paisley...goes perfectly with the rest of your quilt. And the choice of going with a thin red inner border followed by a slightly wider black border before adding the wide paisley really rounds it off nicely!
