just because you are asking I think you might want to add a border. I did a quilt in purple and yellow and kind of thought it might need a border but did not listen. Now I have to look at it daily and think I should have added a border. LOL It is very beautiful though. How big is it already?

I have 3 more of these honeybuns to use. I'm going to try and do a different pattern for each one.

It's a honeybun so the strips are 1 1/2 inches and finish at 1 inch each after the seam allowance. And I guess I lied. I do have a few "ends" that are left over. But, hardly any waste doing it this way.
