I'd hope that you would include the tiny border to float the blocks away from the border...it just seems to make the border more important...but that's opinions for you...everybody has one or more...and it is your quilt so I'll just wait to see your completed vision...I do admire your work.
There isn't a border there in EQ6 but it shows the blocks slightly away from the two side, which is weird. I don't plan on a small inner border. The border fabric has small strips of beige and a larger strip of blue. I have to see it in person and see how the pattern repeat is but I would probably have the beige next to the quilt, then the blue, then a framing strip of beige again.
The 2 beige squares for the block are cut 7" square, not 9". :-D I just got all of them cut out. Now need to cut 12 each of the two blues, 13 of the large floral, 8 blue toile and 4 beige toile. It's a very simple design but the fabric is so pretty that I just wanted to use large pieces. I will have quite a bit left over for matching pillows.
And thank you!
