Choice A will last longer into the child's life, because it is not so childish.
Choice B is more fun. So are you going to longevity or fun?? |
I like A. :)

If you have any of the other colors used in the blocks you could do a prairie point border and then the blue. I love it, colorful and I like the lay out.

I like a thin border of A and a wider border of B :D:D:D

Thanks again for everyone's opinions! Of course, I realized I don't have enough of the spaceships to make a border.... I think what I'm going to end up doing, is using a small inner border of some light blue (pulled from the spaceship) and then a larger outer border of choice A.
Unless someone happens to have 1.5 yards of the blue spaceship material that I could buy? Jo'Ann's is out of stock online, and none of the stores close to me have any. :thumbdown: Thanks again! |
I like b, since so many of your fabrics already read as solids, the print in this border, gives more contrast and texture.
|
How about an inch border of Choice A with a wider Choice B, then maybe bind in the red.
Cheers, K |
