This pattern is one of the next in my queue. I have the fabric sitting in a pile waiting for me to get to it. Love yours, and you may have inspired me with your pieced border.

This is such a pretty quilt, refreshing looking.
I hope it won't upset you if I show you an alternative way to make this on point border with out actually being "on point" .

Using snowballed blocks you can get the same effect. Snowballs = a square (your blues and greens) with a smaller square (your whites) - sewn across the diagonal - on each corner.
