I recently saw a pic of a border that was quilted with just straight lines, closely spaced, going the length of the block. I thought to myself, "how simple yet very nice looking." Due to the curve in your pieces, you would have to fan them a bit.

Love that pink and gray! Reminds me of a cute suit I had in the 1960's.

I was going to suggest the same thing LizzieBizzie did.

Need some clarification- Are you talking about the quilting design on the border

This is what I was thinking too...

I agree with rusty :lol:

What about a scattering of smaller flowers appliqued around the header? Do you have more fab? If not...hand quilt smaller flowers in random pattern using pink thread.
