Here is my current top. The narrow lavendar strip is attached; the striped fabric is supposed to be a 4 inch outer border, then the plan is to bind with the lavendar. I'm a little iffy on the stripes. What do you all think?

Strips look great and I love your quilt!

Matches beautifully --- If you have enough fabric, it would give it "oomph" to set the stripe fabric at an angle....

I think it's perfect. It picks up the other colors in the wonderful quilt! Great work. :thumbup: :-D :thumbup:

The stripes are certainly pretty, as is the quilt, but to me, they feel too busy to go with the calm elegance of the body.

The stripes are fabulous! If you do mitered corners it will look awesome! If you can't do mitered corners (I don't know how to do them, then I would do a special corner block...the stripes look like a piano key border without all that work!

I REALLY like the stripes! Just wanted to share my opinion, even though you've already made your decision :oops: :oops: :oops:

Sorry everyone, the stripes don't do it for me, just my tastes though. If you like them then go for it, you are the one that has to be pleased wtih the way it fits together.

Love the stripes...the colors are perfect!
