I've made four of the "grab and sew" scrappy strip quilts. Put a plain border on them and then a border print border (because I have a whole shelf of border prints
I need to use up) and they are quite attractive. The plain border gives your eye a place to rest and makes it a little less busy. The border print corrals it all and gives it a finished look. I just finished one with a red strip down the center and black, white, black strips down one side and white, black white strips down the other. I had a border print that was black, red, and white and that was the finish. It is a gorgeous quilt and is at the quilters now.
