If you like it as is, then it's good. But I personally, love, love, love borders on my quilts, so I would put a border on it. :)
|
What i do when i can't make up my mind is audition certain fabrics or ideas. Pin a 6" strip next to it on your wall and look at it for a few days or use your digital camera and take pictures of the different ideas. then you can compare them side by side. pick the one that catches your eye. It looks great now, but a certain border might just WOW it!
|
If you like it the way it is call it done. There are no quilt police.
|
Keep it the way it is now very cute.
|
I agree. Very cute quilt
|
I vote small red border. Lovely top.
|
I think i would either use a thin red border or bind it in red.
|
A red binding would be very pretty and a nice finishing touch.
|
I think a red border would look great.
|
If it was mine I would either bind it in red or put on a thin red border.But it is a beautiful quilt.
|
It is really cute. maybe a cream or red small boarder would be nice.
|
I was told once by a really good quilter the the border is like framing a picture. I love the quilt, great job!
|
Darling quilt! I would add a red border- maybe 2" to 3" wide would set it off.
|
One thing I absolutely love about quilting is that it is my quilt and I can do whatever I want. If you don't want a border, don't do it. If you do, then do it. I've changed many patterns and haven't regretted it yet.
|
A green pine branch or pine cone border would be very cute. Or you could go just the opposite and do blue with snowflakes in it.
|
I agree if you like it and the size is good for you, then leave it be! If you arn't sure, Put it up on a design wall or something with a border next to it (unsewn) to see if you would like it better. If you take a picture of it with and without a border, it may help with your decision.
Good luck! |
What a beautiful quilt! It looks pretty the way it is. I would add a small white border to make the little snowman blocks stand out more and do a red binding. It's your quilt and whatever you do it's going to be cool! Pun intended :-P
|
Stop here if you like it without any border :D:D:D
|
It looks very good as it is, but with a red border it would be magnificent.
|
If you don't add a small border, you will cover up some of the pattern in your corner stones. Maybe would look a little off?? I think a small red border too. Cute quilt.
|
This is really a cute quilt, do whatever makes you happy. I would bind it in red though.
|
I agree with a small border
|
It's your quilt. You don't have to add a border if you don't want one.
|
While red is my fav color, I really think a green that is in the quilt would be a great border or just a green binding. maybe a small green and finish with a red border and binding. Lots of options. Great quilt. Very cute.
|
Its so cute like it is, and I agree, a red binding would finish it off just right

Beautiful quilt and a red binding would finish it off perfectly in my very humble opinion :-)
|
No you don't have to but one might be nice.
|
I would put a smaller red border around the quilt. Darling quilt.
|
Maybe do a red binding if you don't want to doa border. I always do borders on my quilts because I like them - this is your quilt do it how you like it!! Remember - No Quilt Police! Your quilt is adorable and will be great whatever way you decide to finish it!
|
I think a white border with red binding would set it off.
|
I agree that a red binding would perfectly finish it off. The only reason I say that is that it would make the green small edge blocks look more like part of the design. But it's wonderful the way it is,

If you like it that's all that matters. Leave it. I like the way it looks too.

|
I would leave as is and bind it in red.
|
I think a black border would really make it pop! :idea:

A small border in black would frame it nicely.
