If you do go there I would suggest using a thin strip of the solid gold fabric and then a wider strip of the plaid or the dotted material if you have any of that.
My vote too!! Also the binding could be the fabric you used as sashing between kitties!! Unless you just need it larger - I wouldnt add anything!! I like throws but I would make this a size that would actually fit a bed - just my opinion lol please send pics when done thanks cheryl :-D

I agree, a thin gold then the plaid. Nice colours!

Love this quilt, agree your trying several ideas for a day or so, then decide. Please, Please where did you get your Kittens fabric?

If you are going to do a border, I like #1.

I got the kitties from my local Quilt store, but I just did a bing search for kitten panel fabric and it came up at top of list,
here is one link that has it. . .

I am not an animal person (i have children) but my 6yr old dd is a stuffed animal fanatic!! So I had this pattern I wanted to try out and thought this material would be cute.
It is!!!
Pattern is called Pavers

My favorite is the plaid. It seems to give the quilt some pop.

Gold plaid with a cat block in each corner.

I love the quilt, it would look great with a thin dark coffee brown to bring out the pictures and the gold ,then the lighter brown.. but that is my thought.. ;)

What do you think?
These are just materials I have, If theres good ideas for another color i can get something else.
does it need a border?
Thanks to all my quilting friends I know I will get an honest answer!!
My thought (for what it is worth) would be to pick up the dark brown in the fabric for the border and then bind in one of the gold colours. The quilt is just gorgeous.
