A very pretty repro. As far as another border, With the soft beige on the outer border now, if you really want one I would use the sashing fabric but I don't think it needs another one to make it look more complete or anything. It has a very nice simple antique look as it is.

peace

EDIT: I forgot to add that I love to see quilts hanging on cloths lines and your quilt is made very special this way. I would also like to see this quilted rather than tied. So pretty.

If you need it larger, how about a dark blue border. It sure is pretty.

Oh beautiful! At first I thought the NY Beauty on the bed was part of the quilt (and that would work btw) but then I saw the next photo and LOVE the colors. It's really a beautiful quilt.

I don't know anything about tying a quilt, just wanted to say that it looks perfect as is. The colors are beautiful and works so well with the pinwheel pattern.
