HI Dina Cleaned out some emails sorry my box was full !! This is the toughest question but if you FEEL the need for a border, start trying the various yellows for an accent border and one of the darker blues and see what appeals to you. Sometimes when Bargello is very busy, I just put the binding on using the darkest color to frame it. Do you need a border?? Just a thought !! Good Luck !!
