I love the triple irish chain - I would probably do a dark border using one of your dark pieces - it will look great.

All I know is that it is cheap fabric from Walmart that I bought about 4 or 5 months ago. I know that my brother does not take the best care of things so I did not want to spend too much. I have only about $45 in the quilt top so far and it is 90" X 90" :)

Well done and I agree with you that borders would look great on this quilt.

Joann's also has fishing fabric (I just bought a few for a quilt for my Uncle) by Debbie Mumm and it is 50% off now!!!
