I love the quilt. I think incorporating all the colors will wash out all your work but a binding in one of the colors would be very nice.

Autumn Dancers, beautiful quilt!

Maria C 08-08-2011 09:08 PM

Well done. I think you need to decide what you may use it for and therefore if you need it bigger or not. It will be great either way and beautiful work by your buddies and you.

It's beautiful. It looks great without a border. Maybe just a dark binding, it would look really nice. :)

Just love the details you've used--the reversed pinwheels, the tiny corner flowers placed over the seamline, the carefully placed but random feeling falling leaves. The movement in the quilt suggests "Windblown" as a name, or Autumn Breezes, Winds of Autumn, or even Wind Power for an ecological bent.

A dark edge would frame and finish your artwork, either as a binding or as a medium width border with perhaps a bias-pieced scraps binding.

You have done very good work here.

I think it's a toss up between a narrow dark border and no border, just a dark binding.

Your quilt is beautiful as it is. Binding it would be enough in my opinion.

jlarke 08-09-2011 06:38 AM

I'd call it "Leaves in the Wind"

juneeloonee 08-09-2011 08:46 AM

How about "Autumn Dance"?

chuckbere15 08-09-2011 11:56 AM

If it was mine, and if I decided to put a border on it, I would do half square triangles in the colors of the leaves to copy the inner border. Either way, absolutely beautiful!

dotski 08-09-2011 01:25 PM

imho i think a small solid dark colored boarder.
it's beautiful just the way it is but a boarder may make it all pop !

No border. It's beautiful as is. What about "Leaves Falling All Around"?

Quilting Angel 08-09-2011 09:25 PM

Oh this is beautiful. Although a border would be beautiful, I think I like it just as it is. I say bind it and be done...great job.

nstitchs 08-09-2011 09:27 PM

With the leaves falling and the pinwheels turning, how about something like "Fall Winds", or "End of Summer" for names.

End of Summer or Summer's End....... Lovely quilt.
