Wow! Just wanted to echo the others. That is a beautiful top .
Dark blue will really set it off. Please share with us when you've finished. Lori |
yes you can probably find more blue paisley than the dark blue. so either one would be fine. lovely quilt!!

Being that you don't have any left, is there any chance you could get it at another store? Or just use the turquoise and bind it as is. |
Beautiful quilt.I would use the paisly print if you have enough. If not any blue that is in the paisley.
Here's a designer trick. If you cannot match a color exactly use 3 in that color and it will look like it is matched. As you already have a nice selection of blues, any blue will work. Your niece will love it. |

peace :-) |
I would use a dark blue fabric for the border.

Great quilt....am thinking maybe a navy border....something with a small print?
|
Beautiful!! I'd go with some sort of dark blue. I know you don't have any of the medium blue left, but a darker blue would look good.

Gorgeous fabrics, and it came together well as a quilt! I would look for a darker blue fabric, similar to what is in the paisley, for the border. That would frame it nicely. Keep up the good work!
