I like the idea of the yellow/gold -- you could even do just one of those small folded tucks around the blue, then add the dark color that you show in your picture. I would keep the wizards in the back -- they are pretty busy and I think they would distract from the rest of the top rather than finish the top.

I will post pics tomorrow after I get the final border on. The only reason I am even using the wizards is because that is what I have. I will put it just on the back, and that will make it reversible. I figure wizards kinda go with the celestial theme, and this is for a boy, soooooo.......

I think a gold border...

I would add a narrow (1 1/2 or 2 inch wide) yellow/gold border and then a wider (3-4 inch) border of the dark blue stars. The wizards is to light and takes away from the stars, but I agree it would be great for the backing.

I like the dark with the stars. How pretty and what a great idea to use the wizard on the back.

I believe I would use a narrow yellow/gold and then a wider border of your second choice. She didn't ask for wizards. On the back is fine but I wouldn't put them on the front.

oh yes go with the yellow/gold from favoritefabric.com looks perfect. The aqua is just to much gizmos with whats in your center blocks. Will be great for backing.

It's very nice - I like your color choices - the aqua is perfect with that.

I don't care for the light wizard fabric for the outside border. Just my opinion on that.


You could just bind it at the size it is - it looks "complete" to me right now - if that would be "big enough"

That's exactly what I would have said.
