After doing borders on two quilts in the last few days I am so tired of it! This is the first border I had planned for this quilt and looking at it I'm thinking... does it really need the second border? It's about 76" x 76" now and the next border would be 4 or 5 inches (I'd have to measure the pattern repeat again to be sure).

Sorry, Pam, but I vote yes for the second border. And it is a really beautiful quilt!

Me too. Yea on the second boarder, but when you are in the mood. If I sew when I am not in the mood I will surely screw it up.

I like the second border too......

I have to agree with the others. I like the second border, too.

I really like the second border as well.

I'm afraid I agree - Pam, second border to really give a deep frame to the stars, otherwise they're a little too close to the edge! Put it away for a while and come back when you're more in the mood for borders!

Absolutely go with the 2nd border. It will frame it so nicely. Your quilt is beautiful Pam!!!

gorgeous quilt.

yes, I too, vote for the second border. The middle is so large, that with just the one border, it looks unfinished.
Great quilt all the way, though! :D
