Finally finished the top! I tried and tried to like this quilt with the purple border (which was the fabric recommended at my LQS when I took the top there looking for border fabric), but I just wasn't happy with it. I actually added a blue wider border to the outside which helped, but I was still dissatisfied. So off to my small stash I went and found the aquamarine batik. I took off the purple, added the aquamarine and then the strip border of all the fabrics used in the pattern. Now I'm happy! Of course, next I have to decide what to use for the backing. Decisions, decisions! But that is the fun of it, right?
