nice quilt - I'd go w/the dark also.
|
I agree on the darker color, love the 4 patch and nine patch combination.
|
I would also use the darker color. By the way, your quilt looks nice.

I'm in the majority. The dark blue.
|
When I took quilting classes they said always bind in the darker color because then your eye does not want to look further out, so that is what I always do.
Nice quilt. |
REALLY PRETTY QUILT - CONGRATS - I agree w/ most on here to use the darker color (blue/purple?) it will pull it altogether (& not show dirt as easy as a lighter color)
:lol: |
I like the darker color
|
The purple to frame it. Beautifully done.
|
The dark color would look best, I think.
|
The plum color is my preference.
|
The dark will look great

Think I would do the dark blue
|
I would use the dark color or for something different, use pieces of each color, that wouldn't take away from the quilt its self.
|
Darker color for the binding.
|
I would use the darkest color as bindings seem to get dirty over time, plus the dark color will frame your pretty quilt.

The darker color used in the quilt. Eddie is right. The edge gets the most wear and tear. Dark colors fare much better. It also frames the quilt.
|
the dark one
|
i would go with the dark color
|
I like your quilt, I'd use the darker color to bind it toreally frame it.

Purple...beautiful quilt
|
I like the dark color. Will set it off nicely.
|

Love you quilt and your sashing and border really are effective. I vote for the dark border. It would really frame it beautifully.

Maybe the dark, or even a print with the colors in it for something different. :):):)
|
I'd go with a dark gold
|
I also like, a lot of us here think the dark color.
|
I think it could handle the dark blue very well. It would stop the border nicely. It looks great!
|
i would use the darker, to hold it all together.
|
its official dark plum frames your work and pops all that you have done nicely done great job you go girl
|
Think I'd go for the dark one; it would seem to frame the quilt. Very pretty color selection.
|
i always hate to bind in white because we use my quilts and wherever my husband pull the quilt the white binding gets dark even though his hands are washed every time he comes into the house. comes from being a farmer????
|
I like the dark color. Show us when you get it done!
|
The darker color would frame it beautifully!
|
I think I would go with the darker. Be sure and show us the finished quilt!!
|
The darker color for binding. :-)
