i think a black wide border so the design floats and then a narrow bright binding in one color. show it when it's done, whatever you decide.

I have to agree. I think first the black border than one of your wonderful vibrant colors that are in the quilt. Beautiful quilt.

I was wondering too. Is this a pattern? The colors and fabric you picked is great. A very pretty quilt.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions!!! Not sure yet what I am going to do, but I do know that I will not be using the swirl fabric in the border. The pattern is from Paducah...called Color Falls by Cozy Quilt Designs. My niece picked it out as a graduation present for her high school graduation next spring. I know I am early, but I wanted to work with all these colors!! Pickng them out was half the fun..... :D

BTW, I will show the end product, but I need to replenish my black. For some reason, I didn't get enough. Now just to find the right brand......
