What is the name of this pattern? It is wonderful - I think it is totally gorgeous, and I would never have noticed the "misaligned" border bits if you hadn't mentioned them. Especially after the whole thing is quilted, and has a bit more texture, I doubt anyone would see them.

Your color scheme is great. I can't believe it is possible to make that many busy prints play nicely together...but you certainly have!!

Thank you! This is a version of POC. I wanted to do the actual POC but as I was looking online I found this under " Lucy Boston Headboard" which was just one strip made into a headboard slipcover. I posted it here and no one could tell me the name of the pattern and there was no info on the site except to say it is in a museum, so I just copied it. ( I had already purchased the POC phamphlet from Backdoor Quilts)

I don't see anything wrong with it. It's a beautiful quilt.

imho, I think it will be perfect using your plan to keep the edge shape and not square it off or fill it in. This looks like heirloom standards to me. Fabulous. Love your choice of fabrics for this beauty. Please keep us updated as you progress.
peace

I'm with everyone else. The quilt is going to be gorgeous and the wicker fabric reads like well aligned dots. Great job and share again when you are finished.
