I like it! And I also like your first choice for the narrow border.

Beautiful scrap quilt! The polka dot border is what I would chose....to me it just added an extra bonus. Thank you for sharing.

A great way to use up those scraps, great pattern.
I like solid/almost solid borders on my scrap quilts. It stops the eye from traveling off the quilt.

I started by cutting 2 1/2 inch squares. I used A LOT of them but still have a ton of 2 1/2 inch squares. I guess I will be making many more scrappy quilts. All of the fabrics have been used in other projects, and a few were sent to me by members of the QB through swaps. Thanks for looking.

Beautifully colorful! Love that with many scrappies you often get a delightful surprise when you see it all together out of all those bits. Like the first border best, but that's just me.
