    I vote for a solid dark border as well.

    Yes, Ms Grace! You did wonderfully!
    And, I think that it really turned out wonderfully strippy by just having bits and pieces, same width, lots of lengths...
    Thank you for sharing!<wave>

    I think it is beautiful, if you don't decide to do a border a nice black or white binding would look lovely. Look forward to seeing it when it's finished.

    I think I would add just a small maybe 2" black border to make it pop even more. Love this quilt!!!

    It's finally finished! :-D
    I decided to quilt it in an all-over stippling in a honey colored thread.

    I really like it! I'm already collecting 1.5 inch strips. I may have enough in a few years! LOL
