Too funny ... before I got finished reading it, I was thinking of a lace edge on it. Then I saw you were thinking of black ruffle and white lace!

Meant to be? :)



The fabric looks very shiny, is it more than cotton? If so, what about something black and silk like? Or being that you've used a lot of reds/pinks, perhaps the dark cranberry/burgundy that is in the quilt?

What is your backing .. that might help determine the edging.
