My husband said the same thing...that it does not look finished with out the border. I just bought more fabric and the flannel. Tomorrow I will hopefully finish it,

Nice quilt, but I agree with everyone it needs a border, I look at a border as a frame for the art we make.

Love the colors! I most always put a border on my quilts. It just seems to frame it so nicely.

I would do at least one border, maybe two. It would make your pattern pop. Love your colors and cute paw fabrics.

I found a quilt shop that is going to do the Meandering: quilting done 'freehand' in random curved lines and swirls for me...35.00 a quilt...Woohoo!!!! I can't wait to see what they look like!
