Here are the links to a couple of my wall hangings.

The giant ornament doesn't have any border. I just used a dark red binding.

Little red bird has two borders all the way around but the outside border is the same as the background fabric so the inner border is the one that really frames it.

Another consideration is a tiny flange between the main part and the border. I did that on a wall hanging where the outer border fabric didn't really go with the center but I needed to use the border fabric. I don't have a pic of that one on here and it looks like I didn't post it either.

I haven't posted Cherry Blossoms either. It only has borders on two sides. It's here with me so I can take a pic of it later today.
