This is my newest UFO to get put together! It's using the Farmers Market line and the pattern "Jungle Fever" that my LQS created. Since it's their (copyrighted) pattern, I can't share it.

I have the center put together (picture 1) and trying to figure out how to border. When I was making the blocks, because of how they're constructed, I had enough little triangles to make the little pin wheels in the 2nd picture. I have them sewn in pairs, but not all together, so first question is - pin wheels or the opposite to pinwheels one?

I want to make sure the pinwheel pieces get in this quilt since I don't need 30 of these little guys lying around. My first thought was to do an inner border of a solidy color, then a border with the pinwheels, spacing them out evenly with the solidy color in between, and then another border with the same solidy color (example of a diff quilt I did this with in the 3rd picture). I'm thinking white on white...?? And if I do that, should the 1st and 3rd border will skinnier than the pinwheel one, or (roughly) the same size?

I had bought the Farmers Market piece with all the veggies (4th picture), thinking it might work. DH thinks it might be too busy.

So... how would you finish it??
