OK, it is hideous, I'll take it off your hands!! LOL, just kidding, I love it. I much prefer soothing, calm quilts to those that "pop", popping is not conductive to sleep. Now what I would do and have done, is to take it to wherever you purchase fabric and just start auditioning fabrics for borders. I made my Cindy's Flutterby quilt from my very small stash. She wanted it "butterfly-ie", try and figure that one out. Anyway, I found some fabric that had butterfly's with a white background for the top and backing but was stuck for borders to make it a little bigger. Walked into the local shop, "35th and Northern" in Phoenix. And the fabric just jumped out at me. It was a fabric I NEVER would have bought but it was perfect for this quilt!!
