I don't know what you were thinking but I am thinking it is to die for beautiful! Setting your large print pieces off with the black is stunning. I would stay on the black or maybe even a small boarder of your primary color and boarder in black. Stunning! Just Stunning!

Terrific ... I thought likely so, but as I said not seeing it IRL.
It's just one of the things I have tripped myself up on in the past and learned to take extra note.

I love the black sashing for that print! The purple border is pretty.

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions. I am going to start cutting the black sashing next.

Dina, that's beautiful! I love the black sashing. Not sure about the purple for the border though.

It will be beautiful with black sashes, no opinion on border color.

I find the black a bit stark. I see it instead of the beautiful flowers and their colors. Usually I like black but this time, it seems overwhelming. What would a very deep purple do for this?
