What size border?
2 Attachment(s)
[ATTACH=CONFIG]570532[/ATTACH]This is my quilt top, but I want to add another border of the teal green print.
Since the large white border was 3 1/2", the floral boarder was 6 1/2", should the next border be 9 1/2" .....or should it be another 6 1/2"? Thanks for your help. Sorry the picture is horizontal. I could not figure out how to turn it!!! Terrytunes |
I think you will just have to lay it out trying both sizes, and take a pic, then compare them. It looks pretty and complete to me the way it is.

I want to make it bigger than lap sized, that's why I want to add another boarder.
|
That is pretty. i think i'd go w/ the 9 1/2.. you have the 3, then 6, and then 9.
If the 9 is too much, then you can cut it down. :D |
Rather then adding another big border, I think I would look for a quilt block I wanted to do in matching colours. I would then do enough of the blocks to go down one side and across the bottom or top for an asymmetrical setting of the center.

I agree with Tartan and quiltingshorttimer, you are going to be overwhelmed with borders. So a nice arrangement of blocks would be great.

Hey, 2 rows of blocks is a good idea. I might think about that. Actually I do a lot of embroidery. Maybe I can incorporate some blocks with embroidery.
Thanks for that idea. Terrytunes |
