I like the suggestion of doing the train tracks on the borders. That would really look great. I don't know how much trouble they would be to do though.

I saw a quilt on this board a few days ago that someone had done for a man who had worked for the railroad with this kind of border and really liked it.

Thanks everyone for all your suggestions. Love the idea of the tracks, but don't know how I'd do it. If anyone knows the quilt Mom-6 saw with the railroad tracks, would you please let me know where to find it. I missed that one. Don't know how I'd go about doing that. Will definitely add another border. So easy...what was I thinking? Obviously I wasn't! Thanks again for sharing.

It was actually a sheet that I found at our local Goodwill store. I reinforced squares with fusible web (they say you shouldn't use sheets for quilting). Always worth checking out places with used stuff!
