Thanks to all for the great comments. Yes, I really like the braided border also. First time in doing one, but like how it came out. I'm excited to see my SIL's face when she sees it, because she doesn't sew at all. Her son just got married and I'm taking them the Autumn Spicy Swirl as a wedding gift. My DH's family likes to receive hand made things versus mine that doesn't. So try to make something special for them when I can.
