I think it looks fine just the way it is. Your cowboy is great. I agree, ask your customer if she thinks it's too dark. If so just a light border should do the trick.

I also agree with QuiltnNan about adding brighter colored appliques in the plain blocks, even if you only added yellow horseshoes or hats, although it is a beautiful quilt and you did such a great job on your cowboy. Nicely done.

I would quilt the large blue blocks with a variegated blue thread. Just my thought...

I would quilt with a bright color on the solid blocks... like ORANGE. Lots of squiggly lines would allow the bright colored thread to really show up.

Quilt with a light colored thread

Don't really have an answer, but love your quilt, and especially, the little cowboys!!

I love your quilt and everything blue. I bought a quilt in Egypt all shades of dark blue no borders. Still love it too.

Appliqué yellow stars or stitch yellow thread in the solid blue squares.

If you use a bright variegated thread to quilt the blue solid squares I think that would brighten it up enough for a great kid look. Even just a swirly meander to look like Lassos would be great and still kid friendly.

Ah,ha,ha! I love this quilt! I guess it has to be quilted but I don't have any suggestions. I would like to see it when you are done quilting it.
