I have so enjoyed your progress on your quilt - thanks for sharing it with us. And the finish line is in sight!

It is stunning. I like the idea of deep, deep red for the border.

Simply gorgeous.I really like the red and black. I would choose the red for the border. The black might be too abrupt.

Wow, that's stunning. And it really didn't take you that long either! Congratulations

Beautiful quilt and beautiful work. I vote for red border.

MadQuilter 04-21-2017 10:41 AM

I'd use red on that beauty.

I have a large long haired black cat who is in love with my pillow too, so I have learned to make my bed every morning to defend my "hair free pillows" too! Lol.

Anyone who can create a masterpiece like your quilt doesn't need advice. I know you will choose correctly on the border. I just want to admire this beautiful quilt.

Beautiful quilt!!

lynnie 04-21-2017 05:49 PM

your colors are fantastic. your points are perfect. what a wonderful quilt!

MarionsQuilts 04-21-2017 06:27 PM

Thank you all for the compliments. I have to admit, I'm pretty proud of myself. I didn't think I'd get it done in less than 4 months lol

This quilt is for me, not a happy couple!! I don't think I'd make this for someone unless they were paying me big bucks!!

thanks for all the votes. I'm going to go with a narrow red and a wide black. Ordered the fabric so as soon as it arrives I can finish it

i am having it long arm quilted by a friend. I'm tired of looking at it lol

Mariposa 04-21-2017 06:56 PM

I meant to also say "Beautiful quilt".

callen 04-22-2017 06:46 AM

Your quilt is absolutely stunning ! I am torn between a dark red border or even black. Whatever you choose, I am sure it will only enhance it's beauty.

Wow! That's stunning! I haven't read all the responses yet, but lay out both colors, take a picture if you need to and see which you prefer more. Nice job!

Veinurse 04-22-2017 10:20 AM

Wow!! Narrow black then wider red is my vote. It is beautiful anyway you do it.

Iraxy 04-22-2017 12:05 PM

Just beautifully done. Red or black it will be a stunner.

janjanq 04-22-2017 12:27 PM

I think a red border with a black flange would look great! (Or vice versa)

Homespun 04-22-2017 05:20 PM

I vote for red. It is beautiful!

red-warrior 04-22-2017 06:25 PM

WOW! That is one fantastic wedding gift!

MarionsQuilts 04-23-2017 05:12 AM

LOL It's not a gift red-warrior - it's for me!!!

Cheshirecatquilter 04-23-2017 09:19 PM

How about red with a black flange or really narrow black inner border?

SherB 04-23-2017 10:08 PM

Very beautiful. I vote for red!

Quilter 65 04-25-2017 04:47 AM

I'm waffling between red and black ... ideas?

Here's the 99% done product! I'm pretty happy with it!

Very nice work. I wanted to do the Bali Star, but the pattern was to expensive.
I like the red. I don't like working with black, can't see that well. lol
