    Thanks everyone...I think the second border does sound fab....

    JANW....this is pretty easy cause the points are floating and there is no cutting them off...

    When I looked at your beautiful quilt I thought "not really a border, just another row of scrappy sashing would be great". Then I read through the other posts and see that I am not alone in my thoughts.

    Another gorgeous quilt, Cathie! You turn out such beautiful quilts. Your sewing machine must hum 24/7!!

    Really pretty Cathie. I agree with some of the other ladies, it would look nice with a small border. Whatever you come up with will be great though. You always do beautiful quilts!
