GeriB - I'm asking if there is a different way to finish, rather than adding more "windows" ... I'm thinking of just sewing down the edges and leaving them black

I would add a black border around it and then bind.

I would add more windows. If you're wanting to keep the "break", use a dark fabric (e.g. dark gray).

I am not usually a fan of this pattern, but I sure do LIKE this one. Awesome.

MarionsQuilts I don't know what technique you used in making your cathedral windows, which are beautiful BTW. I did see a technique done on YouTube that seemed easier than most but your saying you don't want to make any more so I am confused about what you are looking for. Perhaps you could clarify so you don't keep getting the wrong suggestions.
