What Geri B said - there is so much going on in the body of the quilt - that any more would be confusing.

It looks like a fun top - very very colorful - makes me think of a three ring circus - so much to see at one time.

I like the black border and piano keys but then I am a scrapper!!

Your quilt is beautiful! I am confused, but I haven't used narrow pieces of scraps, so why did you paper piece it? Is it because the scraps are narrow?

Beautiful blocks and I think a turquoise narrow border would frame out your blocks and love the idea of a piano key border. I use piano key borders a lot and love the finishing look. Good luck on your finish and please share when you finish.

This is very pretty! I am usually so ready to get a top finished, I put a unpieced border on it! I like the piano key border idea. (don't tell my friend! she has been trying to get me to do a piano key border for a Long Time..has not happened yet!)

I paper piece so that it is as accurate as I can get it. The quarter inch seam eludes me most of the time

I'd do the narrow black and then the turquoise with striped binding. The LC is linear enough. I wouldn't add more lines (piano keys).

Count me as another for just a binding on it.
A dark ... black or navy or dark green or ???? ... audition a few and sew what looks the best.
Or you could go scrappy, but keep it all to the dark scraps/

Finished Binding Size? ... the same as the logs or twice the size.

So that means, if you are wanting the quilt to be larger in size ....
...........keep making blocks, and skip the border options!

Yes, JIMHO! :)

A narrow black border woul pop it. You could also add log cabins as your outer border. But piano keys sound good

JMHO: I would put a black border (fairly narrow), then do more log cabin blocks as the final border.

Either the black/piano keys or the turquoise stripe will work. Depends on how much more work you want to do!

I am a scrappy lover, too, and log cabin is my favorite block! My avatar photo is actually a brown and green log cabin with hand embroidered wildlife blocks. I also always paper piece my log cabins for accuracy.

Love, love, love your quilt! Have you given any thought to how you will quilt it yet? Can't wait to see it finished.
