I like this, if you have the fabric. Otherwise a narrow blue,then orange will look good too.

I would go with the orange border also. I think your quilt inspector is just giving her mark of approval. Jeanniebelle

I like all the ideas I like color and I think if you want to put a small boarder of blue, a wider one of orange and binding and back brown.

I tend to agree with Scissor Queen. A small frame of the blue, a border of the print and bind in orange. That would look fantastic and it already looks fabulous!! Very pretty!

Your fir baby approves!! grin. I don't know what it is about a quilt, but my fir baby has to be on everything I do. The baby will be snug and warm under that sweet quilt.
Your DD did a good job of picking the fabrics.

Ahh, seeing your inspector makes me miss mine. Had 2 huge Persian brothers for 14 years that sent a wee bit of themselves in every quilt I did. Lost them both within 5 weeks two years ago. Quilts just aren't the same without a little cat hair hidden somewhere...lol
