    Ok I just finished the center of a baby quilt, using the easy Carpenter's wheel pattern. I originally wanted to use the squiggly top and bottom border (see photo). But now I like just framing it with the aqua color.

    I worked up what both would look like on EQ6. I would like to know which ones some of you prefer. I am posting the center so far and the two work ups. Sorry the color is bad, it was taken on cell phone.

    i like the first one better, but i'd like to see it with the border going all they way around.

    I like the simple straight line - it frames the star nicely.

    I like the 1st one but if you wanted it framed the 2nd would be the way to go.
