Yip -- that's what I'd do... It's GORGEOUS!

I would definitely do a small light solid border and then you could do any type of border after that. I think you need the solid to set the center log cabin off and make it pop.

I've been adding sort of a racing stripe on my borders. On yours as a suggestion only a 2-3" border in the background fabric, then a 1.5" stripe in a color you want to stand ut and then finish off with a larger background border. Been doing this for my last couple quilts and really like the look. Plus for those quilts that just need a little more size added to them, this works..........at least for me it did.

Love the colors in your quilt, so bright and cheerful. Put on the sunglasses...:-)

Wow, great quilt. I vote for white border. Pin some white fabric down at least one side, should give you your answer on how to proceed.

I like the idea of a small white border to stop the eye. I would add another border to tie in the backing. This would depend on who you are giving it to and what they prefer. (I think a blue backing and blue border to match the medium dark blue in the logs would be smashing!)

I also agree. I would sew a narrow border of the white fabric you used and then try a piano keyboard. If that doesn't look good, then try one of the darker blues. I don't want anyone to take offense but the binding is the part of the quilt that gets the most abuse so I would never use white binding. It will constantly look dirty all the time.

Thank you everyone for your help and your kind words!! I need to re arrange some blocks for better balance, get everything sewn and then I will add the border(s) and post a pic one I get it quilted. Thank you again!!

Add another vote to the White Inner Border followed by that beautiful bright blue (could be border or binding -- or flange). Really striking! I just love this quilt!

I also think the white border would be a great idea, and would then add one from one of your lovely bright colors, or use that as the binding, if not both.

I would do a white border. Love your quilt - colors are so cheery! Makes me happy to look at it.
