117becca...your quilt is gorgeous also,love your fabric and your pet has good taste. Hope to quilt as good as this group one of these days. Everybody is so helpful. |
I love it! I would "picture frame" the quilt with a samll print or solid dark brown 2" border. Then use your pretty fabric you bought on ebay (3 or 4 inches) and then bind off with the same dark brown fabric you used to picture frame it. Truly a beautiful quilt!

Ditto!

Jade,Your quilt looks terrific. Log Cabins are my favoriet. Not every quilt requires a border. If you are looking to make it larger how about making more log cabin blocks with just your colored fabric? Your white paths would show up and the solid colored blocks would stop the design.

I think you need a framing border to put emphasis on the piecing. Then add the border. Just my opinion.

Let us know what you select! |
I agree with plain border - maybe tone on tone in the brown?
