Just saw this thread and as I was reading it, before I got to the end and the photo of your beautiful finished quilt, I envisioned it finished just as you did it. I love it ... great job! :-)

I vote for the wizards or a yellow that matches the suns.

It's very nice - I like your color choices - the aqua is perfect with that.

I don't care for the light wizard fabric for the outside border. Just my opinion on that.

You could just bind it at the size it is - it looks "complete" to me right now - if that would be "big enough"
I agree. I'd use a narrow border (as much as an inch) of the gold in the moons and then the dark star blue.

Very pretty! Perfect for a boy, too. She will love it...and he will, too, as he grows up.

I have something very very similar, almost the same. I have around 3 yards or so. I'm in Maryland. If you want me to send it to you, I will, but I'm literally getting ready to go out the door on a quilt retreat. If you can wait till the weekend, I'll send you a picture.

if you have a joanns nearby they have this great stary fabric that would be great as a boarder. I have used it in about 6 different quilts for little boys incuding my ds's twin size bed quilt. it has all the colors in it and is really perdy.

The finished quilt is perfect. That narrow yellow border is just what it needed. Beautiful!

Gorgeous quilt so far. I'd go for some yellow also.

Your finished quilt - posts #28 and #29 on page 3 - is great!

Thank you for posting the pictures.
