I love ral flowers (as in my garden) and fabric flowers. Could you give me some idea of the sizes of yours? They are really pretty as is the whole thing. But I am always looking for new ideas and your border is lovely. More info please?

Size of right and left hand border is 9 1/2" x 45 1/2" so fairly large flowers which are good to work on. Hope this helps you Elle

Decisions decisions.
Did you try 'auditioning' your border colors, step back and see what you like the best?
Can't wait to see how you finish it!
Thanks for the flavours,, delicious, hadnīt thought of that :lol: Have auditioned and come up with a lucious Green, but decided not to frame each block, they are all different sizes and I am still with my "L" plates up at this game :D :D Elle
warm quilt hugs, sue
