Bali Star Wedding Quilt - All Done
 
2 Attachment(s)
Some of you were following the progress on my bali star wedding quilt! Well, you will be happy to know I am all done, except the border.

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

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

Gorgeous! I'd like to see the red, and then go with predominantly black pillows. But that's just me :)

Either way, you can't lose. It will be perfect either way!

Jordan 04-20-2017 12:23 PM

WOW! Absolutely beautiful quilt. You did a fantastic job on it. No idea on border but I think you will make a great decision either way. Whatever you chose will make a great finish.

There will be no pillows on my bed LOL ... they are hidden under the quilt ... It's bad enough my long-haired cat sleeps on my bed, and quilt) I don't need white fur on my pillows!

I vote dark red. Your quilt is gorgeous.

Beautiful......

Stunning, what a treasure. You seem to get through it quick.

Boston1954 04-20-2017 12:53 PM

Oh thanks so much for showing us the "nearly" finished product. I would love to see it with red on the sides.

What a gorgeous quilt.

joyful1 04-20-2017 01:12 PM

This is absolutely gorgeous!!!

I have been following your progress and I have to say you have created a masterpiece in a very small amount of time. The quilt is absolutely stunning. I think both colours would make a great border.

Hugs

WOW! Beautiful.
I would do a double border, inside black (1 to 4 inch), outside red (twice the black).
Or vice-versa.

cashs_mom 04-20-2017 02:17 PM

Double border. Narrow red and wider black. Love your quilt.

QM 04-20-2017 02:48 PM

I am sure you will make the right border decision for you. For me, it would be red.

Jingle 04-20-2017 03:01 PM

Absolutely gorgeous.

meyert 04-20-2017 03:11 PM

I was going to suggest the double border as well!! narrow black then wider red.

your quilt is just gorgeous - really something to be proud of

homefrontgirl 04-20-2017 03:23 PM

Stunning! I vote red!

rl2b-Roseanne 04-20-2017 03:39 PM

Wowee!!! You did a fabulous job on this quilt. Either border would look great - I am wondering how you plan to quilt it? It is just beautiful ~smile~

UtahQuiltNut 04-20-2017 03:42 PM

Absolutely stupendous!!! Thanks for the wonderful inspiration!

Sandra in Minnesota 04-20-2017 04:19 PM

Oh my, that is awesome! It takes my breath away!!

bearisgray 04-20-2017 04:24 PM

Wow quilt.

For border, i was going to suggest a narrow red, very thin white, and then a wider black border

sushi 04-20-2017 05:01 PM

Extraordinary! Congratulations on an exceptional quilt!

minibarn 04-20-2017 06:55 PM

Finally done, now you'll make me one, right? LOL. Very well done, beautiful quilt.

Sync 04-20-2017 06:58 PM

Oh my its absolutely gorgeous. As for the border I personally would go with red.

osewme 04-20-2017 06:58 PM

That a truly jaw dropping quilt. I would suggest a red border with a black binding. The happy couple is going to be so thrilled to receive that quilt.

JustAbitCrazy 04-20-2017 07:21 PM

My vote for the border is red, or red with a narrow black inner border, but predominately red.

These were my thoughts exactly. Stunning quilt. You should be very proud of yourself.

juliea9967 04-21-2017 04:39 AM

Oh! Oh! Your quilt has just made me add this quilt to my TO DO list. I have never been interested in doing this quilt, but yours is so beautiful that now I have to.

MaggieLou 04-21-2017 05:00 AM

Very pretty. I think I'd try a charcoal grey since there's so much red. It will be beautiful either way.

annette1952 04-21-2017 05:00 AM

Gorgeous quilt! I think the red would look awesome for the border

carolynjo 04-21-2017 05:08 AM

I think red also. That is a fantastic quilt!

NZquilter 04-21-2017 05:12 AM

Congratulations on finishing the top! It is a huge accomplishment and you should be proud! If it had been me, I wouldn't have managed beyond two rings---maybe! It is stunning and I know whatever color you choose for the borders will be a hit and frame it lovely.

Sew Freak 04-21-2017 05:21 AM

that is so pretty!!

EmiliasNana 04-21-2017 05:29 AM

Yours is gorgeous. I have the pattern, templates etc, just not the stamina at this point. LOL Maybe you will be my inspiration.

Jennifer23 04-21-2017 05:49 AM

I vote red borders, and a million congratulations - it's fabulous! I'm so impressed by how quickly you got it together, as well as by its beauty.

twinkie 04-21-2017 05:55 AM

It turned out wonderful. Amazing job.

sylviasmom 04-21-2017 06:04 AM

It is beautiful!! Not all quilts need a border. Bind with red to showcase the red.

susie-susie-susie 04-21-2017 07:26 AM

beautiful quilt. Either border will look great. Love, love, love that quilt. Maybe someday. I made a double wedding ring once, and I'm not ready to tackle something like that again. Maybe in a year or two.

I would border it with the background fabric!
