    Expertise needed

    I have finally finished this curved log cabin and was thinking of adding a small border in the same color as the background fabric......what say the experts?? I have looked at this so long my brain can no longer decide what would look best, thus I turn to the wise world that is QB.

    Yes, I think a small white border would look very good.

    I would do a small white border or flange and then a blue border after that. Jmho

    Looks like the verdict is in for small white border so I'll say a 2 1/2" white border so as to not take away from the gorgeous top by the time you add your backing to it....
    take plenty of pic of family & friends, keep tabs on loved ones but make time for yourself !

    Ditto on this response or green or yellow if you do not want to use blue.

    I agree with you, I think the blue would really highlight it, beautiful quilt.

    Narrow white border. Love, love, love your quilt! Log cabin is always my go-to pattern.
