I had to add a border after I quilted it!!! It turned out OK. I like the colors. My FMQ has a need for improvement. I had 30 blocks in this quilt with a 5 1/2" border with sashing in between.

Nice Save! Love your quilt. That free motion stuff has still got me beat, but I keep trying!

I don't see much wrong with your FMQ- it all looks deliberate to me, what about it do you not like? I think it all looks good. Would never be able to tell that you added the border after.

It looks like you are ready for fall!
Nice colors - and don't be hard on yourself about the border - remember that a lot of people quilt in sections and that is no different ;)
