Does anyone have a suggestion for a border around a picture?
Hi fellow Quilters,
First I want to say how much I love reading all your posts and seeing all of your pictures of beautiful quilts. I am addicted to The Quilting Board! My day isn’t complete unless I’ve visited the Board at least 4 times! You’ve all been such an inspiration to me. I learned how to sew in a home economics class in 4th grade and have been sewing for many years. The QB has given me a new appreciation for sewing and quilting. Thanks to the QB, I’m organizing my fabrics (and I have a lot!) and plan to start my first real quilt soon. I’ll need suggestions latter for how to find a LAer!
I am looking for suggestions for what type of border to use around a picture of my parents that is on a t-shirt. I plan to stabilize the t-shirt fabric then cut the picture into a block. I want surround the block with some type of interesting border and was wondering if any of you have any suggestions for which border would look the best. The t-shirt color is a light mint green. I was planning on turning the finished block into a pillow or maybe a wall hanging with the finished block. Not sure yet.
I’m going to give this to my parents as a gift when I see them on September 15, 2012.
Here's a photo of the t-shirt I plan to use:
