The blue bargello quilt is awesome!! I love it like it is, but a quilted border would add to it.

Ditto on that from me! Audition it and take some pictures... then you will be able to see. Beautiful!!!

I made this very quilt :-) and I did the borders exactly as shown in the pattern- small dk blue, thin accent border, then larger dk blue- it really sets off the bargello. Yours is very pretty

I agree -- two borders, narrow dark blue and a wider light blue.
