Oooh goodness, that is B-E-A-YOOTIFUL! I see what you are thinking about maybe having pink to pick out the colours in the blocks, but am not sure if a different colour border will maybe detract from the stunning 3D effect you have got with the dark/light squares, which is a visual treat!

To me, the bottom looks like it needs another row of the light grey to finish off the pattern, then I think if you still want some pink, you can bind it in pink?

Can't wait to see what you decide to do. I am in awe of this one, it is so lovely.

I agree that it's absolutely beautiful!! I think either a dark blue border or no border.

Glad that you finally made something for yourself :wink:

Thank you all for the good reviews. I am going to finish the left side and bottom with the light and dark gray. When I do that It may not need a border just a binding. Decisions,decisions, I can hardly wait to start quilting it. I am doing stitch in ditch for sashes. Cant make my mind up yet about the squares. maybe outline baskets. AnyWays Thankyou,Thankyou.
