Blue on the inside, gives the quilt more definition and not too light.

Sassylass 02-13-2012 02:09 PM

pawebdoctor 02-13-2012 04:17 PM

I am a border fanatic... I like the second one. What are you planning for your binding???

I agree. The blue on the inside has better contrast.

The second one is the prettiest.

Rose Bagwell 02-13-2012 05:37 PM

I agree, blue on the inside

Dee Dee 02-13-2012 06:09 PM

I think #2 has a lot more pop.

kaleda 02-13-2012 06:34 PM

I vote for the dark blue, wide inner border! Nice job.

heather1949 02-13-2012 10:33 PM

Wow that gorgeous and I like the blue on the inside.

Grandma58 02-13-2012 10:38 PM

I like the blue zinger the best but either is fine!

RIDGEFIELD 02-14-2012 04:10 AM

SueDor 02-14-2012 04:54 AM

I like Number 2 also!

kateyb 02-14-2012 05:15 AM

The blue border.

bigsister63 02-14-2012 07:50 AM

#2 blue inner border

Delta 02-14-2012 08:13 AM

wow the #1 really lightens it up and #2 really makes a bolder statement. I like #2 better. that is just me. I love blue. and your quilt is beautiful.

bbeyes 02-14-2012 07:05 PM

I agree with sahm4605

I like 2 as well.

sewbeadit 02-15-2012 01:09 AM

I like the first one.

Alondra 02-15-2012 08:13 PM

I like #2 better - it really makes the pattern pop.

Alondra 02-15-2012 08:15 PM

I like #2 better - it really makes the pattern pop to have the blue on the inside.

SandyinZ4 02-15-2012 08:15 PM

I pick the wide blue one, also.

klarina 02-15-2012 08:27 PM

Definitely, the blue on the inside one.

Blue's quilting mama 02-15-2012 08:52 PM

I was drawn to the #2, blue on the inside.

katigirl 02-15-2012 08:54 PM

I like the second version better.

jessiesmom 02-16-2012 04:33 AM

I like the second one also.

probles 02-16-2012 09:11 AM

You probably have finished quilt by now, but I would choose the second one. I like them both, but the second one makes the inside of the quilt move more fluidly.

quiltymom 02-16-2012 09:13 AM

I would do 2 if it were mine!!!

karate lady 02-16-2012 04:42 PM

May I ask the name of that pattern? Looks like one I could do and I like it.

Dina 02-16-2012 05:20 PM

Somewhere in these messages, I looked up the pattern name before. Let me see if I can find it. Yes, it is from a book by Rita Fishel called Mystery Quilts. It is called Road to Springfield. I got the book for Christmas and it was purchased from Amazon.

I have put the borders on my quilt and am busy quilting it now. It will have a blue binding. Somewhere around page 7 there is a picture of the borders on it. I went with the dark blue inner border, small white border, and then the focus fabric as an outer border. I am very pleased with it.
