Susie, they look great all playing soooo nicely!!! I love the green eggs and ham block...too cute! About the border....I like the solid strip first, next to the quilt, then I'm not sure about the chicken wire (I think its a great backing though!!)...I tend to agree about you eye needing a place to rest...I might use a lighter color next, then another solid color for a border about 3", then bind it...so 1 teensy border, 1 maybe 1" border, then a 3" border...maybe.....I dunno....lay it out, push the dogs/cats to the center of the quilt so you can see the edges and then play.... Lookin' good girl!!! :D
