Help with binding
 

So.... I’ve finally finished the border on my quilt. [ATTACH=CONFIG]620656[/ATTACH]



so what colour binding?

i have yellow/gold [ATTACH=CONFIG]620657[/ATTACH]


dark purple [ATTACH=CONFIG]620661[/ATTACH]


or light purple [ATTACH=CONFIG]620662[/ATTACH]

I generally figure binding is the last place I can put color on my quilt. Is the light purple the same as the framing of the blocks in the quilt top? If so, that is my first choice. Helps tie everything together and end it at the same time. If it's a close but not exact fabric I'd take the following into consideration.

Personally, I like the solid punctuation of the golden yellow especially next to the border print, but it is a rather "taste specific" sort of thing. If the quilt is for you and you like, sure no problem. For sale or to someone you don't know well I wouldn't do it.

I think the dark purple is a safe reasonable choice, it ends the quilt nicely and strongly without the punch of yellow.

dark purple is gorgeous and also in the quilt. my choice!

Dark purple. Beautiful quilt.

I like the dark purple too. I'm a fan of dark colors for bindings. I feel it stops the eye and frames the quilt nicely.

Another vote for dark purple, but then I like dark ouside borders that sort of frame the "inards". Oh, I didn't see Tartan's post! I agree.

I would chose the dark purple.

Another vote for dark purple for all the reasons stated above. Beautiful quilt, by the way.

Another vote for dark purple to finish the quilt. Beautiful quilt!
