Do I need to add a border to this snowman quilt? The pattern calls for a 6" border, but I like it the way it is now.

You don't have to but maybe a smaller boarder in red would frame it nicely.

I think I would do a small red border.

it's your quilt. you don't have to add a border. if you do though, a white one would be good. more of a winter look. cute quilt!!!

It is really cute but I agree a small red border would look nice.

I think a red binding would ust finish this off beautifully. It's a very nice quilt.

If you bind with red you would have a framing border that would look nice. Totally personal preference on the 6" border the pattern calls for.

Patterns are suggestions not mandates. If you like it, leave it be.

The red border would look like a continuation of the red around the snowmen blocks. It would just top the quilt off. But that is my opinion and I think it will look just as nice with no border. Maybe a red binding would be just as effective. Have fun and the quilt makes snow look nice, not like the snow blowing across the road
