Hey, nicely done! A great way to use up those strips! Perhaps add a darker solid border to give your eyes a resting spot, and also so the edges don't get wonky. JMHO~

i love it. so many colors. I love the chaotic nature of it, it like organization from chaos. I think a thick border framing it in might be nice. or stick with the chaotic appearance and give it a braided border. or a small 4 patch border

Love it! I think it's just right, not too bright . Love the border, it just pulled it all together. :thumbup: :thumbup:

What a wonderful scrappy quilt. Love your finished quilt. The beauty of this quilt is we can use up anything from 1 1/2" to 3 1/2" strips or a combination.

It's exactly what a scrap quilt should be! Scrap quilts are like flowers--it's impossible to make them clash! I love yours!

Yes, at least a 3" border--I think I would make it black. Makes it a little more striking. Lots of time I do this,to use up scraps and then I use it for a quilt backing. Makes for an interesting reversable quilt. and at times I do cut them into squares and then just reverse them,making some stripes go up and down and side ways with a black sashing, A cheap backing and interesting quilt backing.
