I just came across something different today

and think this would be a perfect quilt to try it!

Try a small inner border and then a larger outside border.

I llike it without - and I like the way you've extended the pattern into the current border.

I was thinking the same thing.

No black border....it's gorgeous as is! But maybe an 2 1/2" soft blue or lite white to make it pop more?? And also it's to take less off your top when adding the backing to it with binding.

I think a Navy border would look the best. Love the quilt.
