I’m in the outer border camp. Your quilt is gorgeous.

I vote for matching the outer border with same binding fabrics. Beautiful quilt.

I really like your quilt, the pattern and your fabrics are beautifully complementary. The border treatment allows the beauty of the quilt to take center stage. I would use the fabric in the outer border to bind the quilt. Please be sure to show us what you decide.

Beautiful! Is this Jenny's double slice pattern? Either way, gorgeous!

Either binding would look great.

Beautiful quilt! I love that pattern. May I ask how many different batiks you used? It's so well balanced.

Your quilt is beautiful. I would use the border fabric so the binding and border would look the same.

HoneyJ- Yes it’s Missouri * Double Slice

SewBiz- 40 different batiks from a layer cake, but I used of the same 2 layer cakes to get it the size I wanted.

Thank you everyone, I used the outer border color for the binding.
