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 !!
I just sent a second PM, so you should get it soon. I really like borders, and I want this quilt to be about 60 inches square. So it will need borders to get there.
In fact, I had two experiments in mind when I started this quilt. Could I made the Surf Song wall hanging pattern about ten inches wider and longer and could I make the yellow sort of glow. I have been successful with the size of the quilt, and the jury is still out on if the yellow will glow.
I will probably have to finish the whole quilt before I know that one.
Thanks for the border suggestions. Once I get the whole thing done, I will audition the choices and see what I decide. That is probably a week off...
