The border is the same fabric as the white blocks. I quilted a looser design in the border and did simple meandering in the blocks. I used white signature thread in the border and monofilament thread in the blocks. I didn't want to change thread for every color so I just used the mono on all of it, except the border. The quilting is denser everywhere except the borders.
I will email you a picture of the back. I found the neatest fabric at Walmart that has little daisies all over, perfect for this quilt.
