Nice! Like how all the blocks are different yet the same in feel! I agree with a blue border and the original fabric either for another border or binding.

great blocks. I would border with the original fabric if you have enough. I like to show an example of the fabric that made the blocks on my K quilts.

I agree with the many. Sashing in blue and maybe if you have enough material of the prints (or one of) use that for the border.

Totally agree! If you don't have enough of the original fabric, if you find one with similar colors, it'll work. It doesn't have to match, it has to "go".

You got it right! This is a happy quilt. Nobody would get depressed sleeping under this one! The intensity of print colors is great with the blue.
