I love your quilt. My advice would be to buy more black (if that is what your border is) and add it equally around the edges i.e. a border for the back. I know that you don't see the back but I just can't fathom a red cross in the middle of a backing of such a beautiful quilt. Cut the backing first so that the borders will be the same width all around. Good luck and let us know how it goes. Yolanda Wood River
