I've decided to try a border of the white background squiggle fabric and then bind it in the bright red of the little squares. The backing will be the white squiggle. Thank you! I feel so much better now.

Well, you have the bright,cheerful, graphic beautifully done. Love it. I don't really like any of the borders. Do you have enough of the light white fabric? Maybe that, then a thin pieced border using all the other fabric and bind in a color in the quilt. What ever you decide, it will be a great quilt.

Goodness, guess we were posting at the same time. What fun.

Your plan sounds good. The quilt is very cute...would love to see the finished product!!!
|
I don't really think any of them make your beautiful quilt pop....wondering what a blue or red would look like....
|
I think I would like an aqua border to pick up the aqua in the quilt.
|
I like the bottom one, but the top one would work if you use the striped one for the binding. Actually, if you have enough, that darker pink fabric with the orange flowers that occurs several times in the quilt would bring it all together nicely, and that would look great with the stripes as the binding.

I like the stripes. The pink seems too bright and it draws the color from the quilt blocks. The other two, to me, just contribute to the "busyness" and your eye doesn't know where to go. The stripe makes a very nice frame that highlights the quilt. That's what I think, anyway.
|
My choice would be the hot pink tone on tone dots. Good job on the quilt.
