My sister bought the pattern and as I started working on it, I decided that I really liked the pattern! As I continued to work on it, I have started to feel otherwise. It was so hard to lay out the quilt, and when I thought I had it perfect I still ended up messing it up...I will be glad when this one is done! Just need to add the border (white, her choice) and then figure out how I'm going to quilt and bind it!

Great job. If you use the white, how about binding it in the brown. Then white won't be the last thing you see.

Wow, what a beautiful quilt. The colors are gorgeous. You did a really nice job.

It's very pretty. I don't see any mistakes. I see why you weren't happy with the white for border. I like the idea of a narrow inner border of white to frame it.

Lucky sister you have! Lovely quilt.

It is very pretty; but I can see why you have reservations of using a white border. I know you can't wait til it's done but how about doing the border in that ribbon effect with one side of the ribbon brown and the other side in the rest of the colors then you could use white as the background (hope this makes sense). I've seen it on several quilts here on the board.
