I'm trying to use up my Gone with the Wind scraps and I'm debating whether or not the brown is "too" much of a border. I'm leaning towards -- it looks fine. I really don't want to have to go out and buy a border and I'm limited to options in my stash.

Opinions?????

I like it!

I like it, too!

I think your instincts are telling you something....
For my taste it is "too" much,

Maybe a narrow border and then finish it with a darker more solid? :D:D:D

I think it's a lot. My instinct is to go suggest something more calming and not so busy.

Trust your instincts. Too busy is how it reads to me and I think a calmer, less busy border would be more pleasing to you.

I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!! I love Gone with the Wind!!

I like your choice.

Tough decision for you, with a fairly even split in helpers choices...

But I think it's fabulous..

Use it, looks great!

I think I would like it better if it wasn't so wide.

Both are nice, but I favor the green.

I love the green border!

I like the green better, more claming less BUSY TRAFFIC! You don't want your eyes to pull you toward the border do you? Great job on the center blocks though!! :thumbup:

I liked it too, then I scrolled down and saw the green. I like the green better...it think...lots of help eh?

i vote for the green.

It's busy, but I like it!

I like the green too.

The green is better. Might see what it looks like to bind with the brown print?

Green - With the other one - the eye never rests. It diminishes the other good work you have done.

Oh! I love the green border. Just makes that quilt!

I like the green the best. Carol

yes --it is too much because it is distracting.

I like the green. Pretty quilt:)

I like the green, compliments and pulls the other colors together for me.

I like the green in the last picture better, if you have enough of it. It pulls it all together nicely.

The quilt is really nice, BTW!

I think the green border looks nicer.

I like the green. I doesn't compete.

One more vote for the green

I like the green border better! Gives a calmer and more uniform effect.

i like the green better myself. great quilt!

I personally like the green, but it is my OPINION. Do what makes you happy.

Nice quilt BTW. If it were me I would use the green, it calms it down.

I like the green better.

the green looks great!

I like it.

looks good to me

Same here. I seems to bring out the blocks better.
