    can't you just make a another row of blocks for the sides??? If not just add something that will go with what you have there.

    Your quilt is very pretty. If you have enough fabric, I think it would look nice with another row of blocks on each side following the pattern. Then you could still use a narrow boarder if you wanted. I learn something with every quilt I make. Maybe after 100 or so I might get it right the first time. :)

    How about a piano key border on it? Your quilt is very beautiful and I can't wait until it is finished.

    Beautiful! If you want to, try turning your quilt. If the length would work as the width, lengthen it. It looks wonderful so far!

    Gorgeous. Is there any reason you can't just put the borders on the sides. It is a design thing
