I would do the stripe! Look at the red pepper quilt blog. She uses stripe binding all the time and it looks fantastic!
|
Love it, so cute! I like it as is, but for me, it would depend on the wall I was going to hang it on. If it's a light colored wall, stay with the black, if it's a darker colored wall, I would bind it with the background fabric or the stripes.

A very cute "row" pattern. My vote is black binding too.

Black.
I love your wall hanging, background fabric and all! Very cute! (I think this would look great over the door in an entry hall). |
First thing I noticed was that cute ticking stripe. I think I would bind with that.

I usually face my wall hangings and let the design of the wall hanging go all the way to the edge. This is different than birthing where you sew right sides together and then turn then quilt. With facing you quilt as you would with a binding but then as a last step put on a facing instead of a binding. There are a number of methods to do it but here is a tutorial to give you an idea. http://thesillyboodilly.blogspot.com...y-to-face.html
Hey...we're neighbors...I'm in Lake County! |
I vote for black.....any other colour would take away from the umbrellas.
|
black so the umbrellas are the focus--don't quilt on the umbrellas, maybe a "wood grain" on the black frame (check Leah Day's website to see how to do that) and then "raindrops" or wavey lines to look like water on the background. Lovely wall hanging and I like your idea of using a stiffer"bat"
|
I would used a binding that has strips of each umbrella fabric in it.
