Earlier, I asked for help finding the material for this old movie themed quilt. DH loves to snuggle and watch movies on cold winter weekends, so I just had to have this for him. Once again, you guys came through for me. I got it as a kit in Oregon.

I have the top completely pieced per the pattern. However, my hubby is a little over 6 foot tall and hates his feet sticking out. Soooo, since the top measres about 60 x 66, I am contemplating putting a 4-6 inch black border on, and maybe appliqueing some of the stars, popcorn boxes and other figures onto the border. OR try to find black with gold/silver stars on it (though that might be hard to find). What do you think?

I got over 4 yards of the white large film figure material with the kit for the back, but I am going to use beige star covered flannel instead for a nice cozy feel.

Sorry the pics aren't real nice, unfortunately I don't have a design board.
