Since it's called mango salsa why not use some of the chili pepper material that is out now; it would match the front and the name. it's very pretty

Love, love, love your OBW. Red is my favorite color and the red border really brings out the red in the blocks and makes the whole quilt pop. Your choice of piping and borders really help to accentuate the quilt.

Great job!!

Really pretty. What fun to have a partner to quilt with.

dh and I made the entire top on our featherweights.. so much fun doing this with him.. now to back it and quilt it... not my best thing to do .. but it's got to be done !

Being that DH had such a big part in this quilt, maybe he'd like to do ths sandwiching and quilting this time ...... being that it looks like you're not looking forward to that part!

I did think about using that. but I wasn't sure if it would take away from the front or not.

How about using the same fabric as the borders?
