Thank you to the QB members who helped me modify it in a satisfying way. The top is done and I am not sure if it will go in my UFO pile or if I can put together a back for it this weekend... we shall see!

Thanks for looking
May I ask what the mystery quilt was from, I would like to do this pattern. It is beautiful. You did a wonderful job

!!! I love it, it's beautiful. I have done a couple of mystery quilts and picking the colors was a horrible job for me, but you really nailed it. Great job.

That's pretty and the two borders worked out perfectly.

So, did your border work out perfectly To the size of the center or did the dark “cheater” strip save the day?😁

Tartan - I added a small extra bit to one border square on each side. Thanks for the help!
QuilterJeannne - it was a mystery quilt that one of my guild members created. I think if I were to re-do it, I would use consistent fabric instead of the scrappy options, but I do like her pattern!

That small dark border that you added really does add something good to this quilt

Beautiful pink quilt. I like the name you gave it too. Especially love that border. You did a wonderful job on the whole quilt.
