This Border really looks good but I am working with small scraps and have just about use all of this color, but may have enough for a scrappy piano border, I just wanted to start using up all my scraps as they are getting to be to many, and with two large totes of them, it is starting to drive me crazy... Thanks everyone for all your suggestions on my border dilemma.. I now can go forward and get this quilt done.. Thanks

I know that's more work (sorry!) but your quilt looks so lovely I thought it deserves to be beautiful all the way out to the very edge.
