Love the different look the white lends to your quilt. Bravo.

Love all the colors. Have a look at Judy's quilts with many borders. She has one with 7 borders. She gives a bit of direction when using multiple borders. Check for these instructions on her sidebar.

They are 2" unfinished - but I made the patches using 5" charm squares. I can post how to do it - if anyone is interested. That way you aren't sewing little squares to little squares. Your squares will work.
