Putting boarders on a panel I brought and hope to give to my mom. It would make a great wall hanging but not sure if I should add another boarder of red or leave well enough alone and make a binding out of the red.

What do you think?

Without the extra border. I love the green, red, green. The extra red one is overkill. That's just one person's opinion!

I vote for only one red border.

I like without the red border.

I like them both but would probably just bind it in red.

I I think ending the quilt with red is beautiful. Nice job

For a wall hanging, I'd skip the last border. It's just right the way it is.

I like ending with the red. Kinda boring ending with the green. But, that's just me.

this.

I'm not going to be much help. I think it can go either way. If you want it a bit bigger, add the red. If the size is good as is, leave it.

I would just bind it in red.

I like the second picture. I'm a renegade, always have a different opinion. Please yourself and it will be perfect.

I agree.

I have to agree with the ending it in red is a lot brighter to me than just the green. I vote for the final border being red.

Only 1 red border and bind in the red. I love a contrasting binding!

No more borders, just bind it.

I'd leave the last red border off and just bind it in the red.

if the last green border is as thick as its going to be then i would have to go with ending in red.

i think the quilt looks better ending with a large outer border - that color really isn't as critical for me - it just needs to be thicker then that green one you're showing.

I like ending with the green and then a thin red binding. I think the extra red border overpowers the inner panel.

I think ending with just green with red binding would let your eye go to the center of the quilt, where the wide red border makes you look everywhere at once.

without

I agree!

I like the extra red border!!!

I guess I have to be the one to disagree. I think that the last red slightly thicker border 'lifts' the green border and gives the panel a 'boost'. It fits in so well too. I would end on a red to add pizzaz to it. It is a personal preference and you need to decide what you like and go with it. Lovely panel and love the choice of colours!

Well first off it is lovely and your momma will love it.
I also feel the outer border of green is to narrow. So I'm voting for a larger red border. Just my humble opinion for what it's worth. ;-)

one border

I like it with the red border.

Yep, this is my opinion also. looks great.

I like the red on the outside whether you choose it as a border or binding.

I like it with all the boarders on...IMHO It's really pretty :)

I'd use red as the binding, and forget the extra red border.

I agree

:thumbup: :thumbup: I agree

me too!, it's beautiful!

I love ending with the second green border. It is beautiful. The red is a beautiful pop, but two borders of it is a little much. Having said that, I must confess that green is my favorite color.

To me, it pops more with just 1 red border.

That is my opinion also. Use red for the binding.

I like it both ways, but if I had a choice I would choose without 2nd red border. Its really beautiful.

I like the extra red border since it is to be used as a wallhanging. The red border completes it as a frame completes a piece of artwork.

i agree
