Borders or no borders?
#15
I'll throw in my 2 cents. I think you should add a narrow black border and then a wider border in either red or that gold. Those 2 fabrics seem to stand out to me and a border of either of those colors would help them stand out. Just another opinion...

Should I use a blender and another print? I do not have any of the fabric in the blocks, they were all fat quarters.

Im thinking a thin red asian print border followed by a wider gold (like gold in your quilt top) Red is in alot of asian designs anyway right??? this is really cool. dont forget to keep us posted. Thank you for sharing.

Bring it with you when shopping and try out a few fabrics with it. This works great because some might blend and look ok, but the right one will make it pop!
