Okay--here's what I would do. I'd put on a log cabin style border--which is one side, then add the one next to it, then the one next to that...etc, rather than opposite sides.... and I'd use brown, yellow green, and blue.
I love to garden too--so you'd have all the earthy colors surrounding your GORGEOUS piece.
PS My husband would have said the EXACT same thing. :roll: :lol:
