This is a table quilt I'm making for my DD. I can't decide between these two borders or does it even need another border??I could use the brown or green fabric for the binding and forget another border.What do you all think?
quilt [ATTACH=CONFIG]168960[/ATTACH] green fabric [ATTACH=CONFIG]168961[/ATTACH] brown fabric [ATTACH=CONFIG]168962[/ATTACH] |
I really like them both, but would probably go with the first.
|
love it and I would use the green fabric.
|
Your quilt is beautiful. I like the second one, it matches the sashing and pulls it all together.
|
Beautiful topper, I really like the first border :D:D:D
|
OOPS!!Got thr border fabrics mixed up ,The first pic is the brown ,second one is the green.
|
Love that quilt and either border will be fine or even without. It is gorgeous!
|
I like it as is, just a dark binding. let me know when it's done so I can send you my address! ;-)
|
I like the green border best.
|
The green border ties it back to the sashing and looks very good. The brown border looks better because it is darker. Either way, it is a work of art for you to be proud of.
|
I like it without the additional border if it is big enough for you.
|
Either border would be quite pretty. I think I prefer the first one though. (This would be the brown border) Bind in the green
|
H'mm. Before I register a choice, I would suggest you place the topper on the table where it will be used. Then you can see which looks best. If you or your DD decide it should be bigger, then you might want to use both the brown and the green. Seeing it in context might make all the difference!
|
If the size is alright, I would not add another border, just a brown binding. It is so beautiful as is, it does not need anymore.
|
Both work well, but I like the first one :)
|
How about using the green as a border, and then binding it with the brown?
|
Like the first border. Really pretty.
|
My pick is the green border. It just seems to fit in with the rest of the quilt.
|
I think I like the second (brown) best. The other is just a little distracting from your feature work. Great quilt!
|
Looks great either way.
|
I like the second one with less pattern in the fabric. It doesn't detract from the dresdens and applique and frames both nicely.
|
I like the 1st border fabric :-D

It's very pretty. Another border isn't necessary, but of your choices, I'd do green. Green would add a bit more color to the quilt.
|
I agree with T-Bones Mom. If the size is correct, I'd just bind it with the floral.
|
I really like the first border but it would be beautiful without another border too!
|
It's a beautiful quilt! Right away, I like it without a border, then when looking at your choices...whew,that's hard
....both look great but I might lean more toward the second choice. Maureen |
I like the first one, the brown floral.
|
Both would work, but I like the first.
|
Beautiful topper!!! I vote for the Green border.
|
Definitely the first one!

If the quilt needs to be made larger, I favor the brown floral for a border and then green for the binding. |
Brown. Your quilt is gorgeous.

I like the first one, the top picture. That border shares all the colors of the blocks.
|
the green one looks really good.
|
Definitely the first border. I'm not familiar with the term table quilt. Do you use it like dining room tablecloth, or cocktail table covering, or end table, or cardtable cover? How will your DD use it? I think it is beautiful.

Thank you everyone for all the help and nice comments.My daughter has decided it is large enough for her table as is so I'm not going to add any more borders.Will just quilt it and use the brown fabric for the binding. |
oh I really like the first border. You can send the whole thing here i'll take it off your hands.
|
I like the big flowers!
