Here it is, you can still find fabric at M*, they are big blocks so it comes together quickly, I cut everything out Friday and finished at lunch today. I'm going to try this pattern again in different fabrics.

I love it! Great quilt! I think I would just go ahead and bind it in black. I think it would look great

A very beautiful quilt - personally, I would put a light border, to make it POP!

No border is needed in my opinion.

I usually am all for borders but in this case, I think it's fine without. Maybe that's why the pattern didn't call for any.

So are you talking about the circle that appears.? I love that. I love the pattern and I am not a person that has to put a border on everything so I say bind it in black - no border.

I love your idea of a thin cream border with a wider black one. I think it would frame your quilt perfectly. It's very pretty!
