I like a border on a quilt. To me, it makes it more complete. Hurricane Hannah is precious.

I love that quilt!!!
I don't think it needs a border. It's splendid on it's own! :D
Hannah is too cute!! :D

yes I do too. I LOVE, LOVE a border on my quilts. Just feels more complete to me. That's my thinking anyway... LOL :)

My opinion is, is the quilt big enough as it is? I like borders myself, but there is no quilt police so you can do whatever you want.

I usually like borders, too, but this one would look fine without one!

I like borders on my quilts. They seem to frame them. It's up to you though. Your DGD is darling.
