I have some egyptian print material, a friend gave me. I'm going to make a quilt, with the egyptian print, as the whole panel. What I would like is, if anyone, will help me find a color, I would like to buy. Or any web sight material/shop/business's, I can check out. I'll post a picture, of 2 of the egyptian face's of the material. The other ? I have is what can I do for the border. I have a picture of 6 color(maybe 5 colors) I will use. Any suggestion's I will appreciate. Don-isewman

I love the fabrics, are you going to through in the fushia color anywhere? for me I would have to add a touch of that some where, maybe the binding or a very thin very thin strip around the quilt.. as one of the borders...Also I think I saw a hint of green in there.. I did one simular.. i did put a solid small border then I did strips different lengths and sizes sewed them together like a frame around it.. or flying geese would look good too.

Some of the green would work and maybe a little of the fushia. I have been happy with http://www.fabric.com prices, fabric and customer service. Keep us posted

I really love your focal fabric and the others you chose to go with it.
IMHO the purple pops out enough on it's own. I love how you are drawing out the blue though. And it will play very nicely with the other colors in the border :D:D:D
