    After receiving so many excellent ideas and words of encouragement from the good people on this board, I tore the top down to the middle square and went at it again. I am happy with the result...still a WIP - lol. Thought I would share the photos with you. Pics are a bit dark, but you get the idea.
    The first pic shows the top as it is now, the second is with the two fabrics I am considering for a final, fat border.
    The border will be on all four sides of course.
    I would love to hear your thoughts and ideas....

    Thanks!
    Lori

    Floral or Camo?

    I have to agree with most everyone else....the border on the right. Great job with your correction.

    Hi, I like the big soft roses on the LEFT for your border, then use the one on the right for your Binding.
