Our own Jacquemoe quilted this bargello. It's on it's way back to me from Vegas! At least my quilt finally got to go to Vegas! LOL!

A very narrow black border if any at all. It is stunning just as it is.

I agree with Shadow a small black border is all it needs unless for some reason you want it larger then I'd put a narrow black border, then the color and bind it in the same fabric. It would be a shame to distract from the bordello, it's fabulous darling.

That is absolutely beautiful. I too agree with the black border. Don't do anything that will draw the eye away from that beautiful quilt.

I agree with SD, throw in a 4 inch black border. It'll stop the eye traveling to the sides and focus on the center! GREAT JOB! :thumbup: :lol: :thumbup: :lol:
