Help with antique block quilt
These blocks were made by my grandmother and her auditor 50-60 years ago and I’m putting them together to make a quilt for my mother. I need some help. I am new to quilting and don’t know what to add to make it rectangle - what border design would go with the style? Perhaps something pieced with fabrics similar to the ones in the appliqué circles? Any advice?
