Dawn,
How big is this? You could make the border slightly narrower.
It's gorgeous!

I love it as it is... no more borders .. I have this HUGE house and I am thinking I will finish it and just hang it.... if it got to be 70x70... I wouldn't be able to enjoy it as much.

But thank you all for the compliments.

I want this RR quilt to be able to be quilted and used... this GORGEOUS center doesn't need anything else I love it just the way it is.

I have the fabric layed out for another idea I have.. something simple yet masculine so my husband or son won't mind useing it.. More than likely it wil be a thro for me though! I just love QUILTS!

Dawn, you're right.
To add anymore to this would be excessive. It's a work of art in it's self.
Can't wait to see what you "real" center is going to be :D

Question:
I have a "northern lights" multi-colored swirl batik that I want to use for my label... should I just just frame a piece of white with it with lines for names?

Dawn, I adore scrappy plaids & stripes! That's fantastic! Good thing I'm not in your group . . . I'd be tempted to "lose" it while it was at my house. LOL. I'll enjoy watching this one grow.
