When I did mine, I had strips sets left over so I used them in the border. Just an idea. :-D http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-95466-1.htm

Totally agree. You did a great job!

NO BORDER!! It looks perfect the way it is. I used to add borders to everything and now I don't. If you like it, leave it as is. I love the colors and fabrics. It is an incredible quilt.

I love that quilt and that book! I'd go with a couple of very simple and relatively narrow borders.

Oh, that one is on my to do list - I already have some of the fabrics! Yours is beautiful! If it is for a wall hanging, maybe leave it as it is, it for a small throw, add borders. Either way, it is a lovely quilt.
