I have a question about what to use for the binding colors in my quilt. I am making a Christmas paper pieced quilt and there are many colors in the quilt. I have a striped colored fabric that has all the colors in it that I was going to use for the binding or do I go with a fabric that was already used in the quilt? Any suggestions??

I personally like the stripe for a binding. I have one of my quilts finished this way and it really adds to the quilt.
|
So it would look okay if that fabric is not in the quilt at all?
|
Definatly ok. I use a stripe for the binding when ever I can.
|
My most favorite binding was a striped one I did on the bias. Looks terrific! And the fabric doesn't have to have been used in the quilt; just so it coordinates.
|
Great!! I will try it on the bias that is what I was going to do. I will let everyone know how it turns out. Thanks so much!!
