I like the idea of the border but until you place the fabric next to the quilt to "try it on for size" and stand back will you really know whether you will like it or not. That is MY opinion. You have to do what you feel looks best. Beautiful work so far.

I think a border would frame your quilt beautifully. Great job, pretty colors!
|
loved your choice of fabrics and colors. Great job.

Think I'd bring out some of the darker tones by using the teal or dark pink. Audition a few, maybe even an orange or yellow.
(Is that the lens cap trying to steal the spotlight?) :mrgreen: |
Either way is going to be pretty. I am not familiar with a Honeybun quilt. Can you tell me more? Similar to a jellyroll?

I can't decide.... Usually, I'm very decisive and know right away which fabric or not I'll use. This time I could go either way. So, add a border or call it a day and quilt and bind it?

That's cute! I think the white border and polka dot binding would really set of off!

I think borders even if they are small ones set any quilt off. They frame them. But that may just be me. I like the idea of the polka dot binding. That will be so cute.

Yes, except honeybuns are 1 1/2" strips and Jelly Rolls are 2 1/2". They are harder (I think) to find uses for. |
