    I'd leave it too. It's a happy turkey with a happy frame. Maybe he managed to escape the hunters and is living in the fall foliage.

    Very cute. Well done.

    I would leave it on and put a darker binding on it. Not a problem. I likeit.

    How about that maroon fabric? Or a packed fall leaves on black ?

    It looks great! If you think the leaves are too busy, try a border that doesn't have as much going on, perhaps a darker one.
