I've finally decided! The gold pieces look better off the quilt. Your husband is right! But the idea of an appliqued piece would add a nice touch to the borders. It you want to use the mini pieces in the corners, I would use the floral the K's are made out of to mimic the pattern and connect it all together that way in harmony! That sounds good to me. Just a thought. Whatever you decide, Marilyn, it will look great. You've done great so far! :D :D
