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 agree. Dark looks better, and it will soil quicker.

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.
