    Back border...not necessarily thin though as I think the border needs to be a different size to the sashing so it will frame and balance the quilt. Then a contrast binding of one of the colours in the body of the quilt.

    I must admit that some of the Grand Illusions are a bit busy for my taste, but yours and the way you bordered each block is absolutely stunning! Great job!

    Great looking quilt. Think it would benefit from the narrow black border.

    Great Quilt. My GIMQ is also staying with me. I have very few in my home. Mostly sew charity quilts from scraps. So Bonnie Hunter is right up my alley.
