    Very Pretty ! Yep have to watch those cutters they will get you when you least expect it :shock:

    Border suggestions, not sure , maybe something bright ? Like the tiny pink flowers (?hard to see on my monitor) on the white fabric

    Nice quilt! I really like the pattern.

    I would probably put a pink border on it to make the little flowers pop out. I am new to quilting so don't take my word for it though!

    Sorry about your finger, I cut mine last week. :-(

    That is pretty. I agree about using pink to go with the flowers.
    I have been attacked by my cutters atleast 3 times that I can remember.

    Not sure where you got that pattern, but finger cutting should not be part of it! LOL! Now that you've healed, I think any soft and pretty border would look lovely on your top. You've done such a beautiful job so far! It's really pretty. Next time, no flesh wounds, okay?

    That is a pretty quilt. I know those cutters can be very dangerous.

    Not sure. What about a narrow border of the pink found in the white background since it seems to be of a little darker value than the rest of the pieces? Then a wider border of the same white background with pink flowers.

    Okay, can someone tell me what a tube quilt is. I see them all over the board, but I've never heard of them. And how do you make them?
