I agree about the pieced border, but IMHO, a narrow inner boarder of a blue from the body would be good.

I like the pieced one the best of possible border ideas. Solid is to distracting and so is the print. Love the quilt body without border, but would like it even better with the pieced border.

Hi FF,
I love that quilt. That yellow you have on the top on the pieced border really makes the pieced border stand out more, also I would use the same yellow on the other edge of pieced border. That would frame it and bring attention to that darling pieced border I think.
I don't know how you have time to make all the quilts that you do. I know how ---YOUR FAST!! Great job friend.

Pieced, second choice printed fabric. Another Sunbonnet beauty on today's quilt board. Love this one.

I vote for the pieced border with the green next to the quilt and another solid on the border! Beautiful work!
