I think the multi colored border is perfect, since all of your plates are already framed out I would not use the solid spacer piece I like it better without.

Just a thought try it with the solid as the outside borde. quilt, multi border, Then solid border see how that looks.

I like the border without the teal. Beautiful quilt!

Oh, NICE!

I like the border without the teal color too. A color other than teal might work but I think it'd be good without anything else.

LOVELY quilt, those colors are fantastic.

I love the border - especially against the white with cornerstones. I don't think the teal does much for the quilt - it works, but doesn't really pop.

Cheers, K

Wow thank you everyone. The reason I put the teal up is its in the plates and the little squares are teal. I still need to put something else on the border. I need about 5 more inches. What about some other colors from the plate?

Try the teal as the outside border or how about a white or black outside border? I just really like how the multi border looks against the white and cornerstones.

I love the border. Your quilt is beautiful!

Sorry, I think it is too busy to be the outside border since it takes away from the beauty of your Dresden plates. You want them to be the star of the quilt. I would use them as a small accent with a larger outside white border. Just a thought.

I'm going to be no help and say i like it both ways...Love the multi border with and without the teal separation. Your Dresden is beautiful !!!
