    Your quilt is adorable. I would maybe keep the same color as your border so as not to take away from your lovely applique's.

    I agree that I would use a burgundy or maroon for the binding.

    Thank you for the lovely comments, everyone. So sweet.

    Thank you, Jane. I use the Appliquick method, which uses light stabilizer and is turned edge. Youtubes available. however, I hollow out the stabilizer to avoid stiffness in applique pieces. I learned that thru Judi Madsen. I like my quilts mushy and cuddly...lol...

    Oh you're right the scalloped border is perfect! Love the whole thing! I would use the green binding.

    I agree. This is what I do when I want the actual quilt to stand out.

    Teen, your quilt is beautiful. The scallop border sets it off perfectly. And your quilting is spectacular.

    My computer died! Eleven days without it. A new hard drive has it working again. Good to be on the BOARD again.
