I second the motion. Lovely quilt.
|
Its really pretty!
|
Beautiful
|
I'm with Greensleeves on this also, green would be a nice binding.
|
I vote with those who say... 'no' to the extra light colored border. The more I look at it... I think I'd (for myself) choose a very very dark blue or even black for the binding, to make the quilt 'pop' more.
But then, I'm one of those who like high contrast... and I'm a new quilter... so... ahhh... forget what I just wrote! (lol!) It's a lovely sampler quilt! |
I would add the green and bind it in the blue if you have enough of it left
|
love it
|
That is lovely

Personally, I like a wider outer border, but I would use a color a darker as oppose to lighter. I was always taught that, with the exception of a dark border to 'stop' the action in the quilt, the outside borders should be a bit darker in color than the previous
|
Love this quilt. You need a beautiful job on it.
|
Omg!! Leave it the way it is ..Simply Lovely!!!
|
The green binding would be great as it will bring the green out in the quilt already.
|
Gorgeous !
|
I love it. I love the colors especially!
|
That is so pretty! Nice work.
|
I'm not so fond of a light border on a darker quilt. But if you'd like to use the sage in it, why not just add a narrow strip of it (1/2"finished) and then another wider border of the dark floral blue.?
IMHO |
I like it just the way it is!!
|
I agree with K.P. I think a darker border will give a more "finished" look and call attention to the quilt itself.
Can you share the source of your pattern. I love it! |
I think it looks fantastic the way it is.
|
If you have enough fabric, add the lighter border, then frame that with a flying geese border of your leftover fabrics. Make binding of your dark fabric, or piece a binding from scraps.
|
Lately I've noticed that quilts with very light borders, those borders seem to fall off. They almost never add to the design. Just like a white frame on a picture. It rarely works.
|
As a lap robe its big enough but if you might want to use it as a throw or wall hanging add the border.
|
Great job. I would leave it like it is.
|
I like it! Great job!
|
Beautiful Work !!! Such nice clean and crisp corners & points! Great Job. Love the colors, too. :thumbup:

Beautiful quilt as is. - Cynthia

It's really pretty the way it is. I would only add the border if it wasn't big enough for the bed.

Your colors all work so well together, I'd let what I wanted for my final measurement determine how much I added. You couldn't go wrong with any of your suggestions.
I'm jealous :x |
WOW...looks gorgeous :-D :-D :-D
|
Oh I just love those blocks!!
|
I like it the way it is.
