Judging by Krisb's information, if you wanted to only use 2 layer cakes, you would have to have multiple borders to make the quilt queen sized or you will have one huge border. After looking at the pictures of this quilt, personally I think those with NO border look the best. I'm assuming that you have 2 layer cakes and don't want to buy more (totally get that as they aren't cheap!), but do you have some fabrics in your stash that you could use to make your own layer cakes with that would mesh well with the layer cakes you have purchased for this quilt?
