I posted a few blocks of this pineapple quilt a while back. I've been managing to do one or two blocks a day, and today I finally got it put together. Part of me wants to just quilt it and bind it the way it is, but part of me thinks it calls for a border or two. What do you think?

You can do it any way you like. A border, maybe one of a darker color that's in the quilt, would frame it up nicely.
It's a beautiful quilt! Do it as you like. |
It is so beautiful as is. What final measurement would you like it to be? That may be your deciding point.
|
So pretty. Love scrappy quilts & this is a great pattern for scrappy. Yes, I do think it needs a couple of borders though just to bring it together.
|
I personally like borders, like PP mentioned, as a bit of a frame. I think it helps tie it all together. It wouldn't have to be anything fancy, just something to close it all in and "finish" it off.
|
I put a border on most of my quilts. There is not right or wrong. Love your quilt, be sure to show us when you finish.
|
I would put a border around it to frame it in and help it stand out.
You've done a great job! It's beautiful! A lot of work and a lot of love in that one. |
Oh what a beautifal quilt. You should be very proud of yourself. I love the scrappy and I think it would look very nice with borders. It would be easier to bind too. :thumbup:
|
Looks wonderful...a nice border would frame it nicely.
|
I love it!

It's a beautiful quilt! Do it as you like. Ditto...a darker color that's in the quilt would really make the colors pop! |
I think a dark binding would finish this off nicely. Beautiful!!!!
|
Beautiful colors! I think a dark border would frame it nicely!
|
I love it! A border or two would look very pretty on it, JMHO :D:D:D
|
For me putting a border of some kind around a quilt is sort of like putting the cover on a book. It just seems to finish it off! Your quilt is pretty like it is though so if you decide to leave it like that you will have a great quilt.
|
beautiful, thanks for sharing with us
|
I like borders!
|
Your blocks are very pretty! I vote to add a border or two...
|
It's a beautiful quilt!!! I think I would put a small dark border on, then a wider bright border. It looks gorgeous just as is though...
|
Wow!!! That is very nice!
Love it!! |
It's beautiful,,, I wouldn't put any sashing around the blocks, I would put a nice darker boarder around the whole quilt and then a light color of binding and then it would look really nice. Good luck with what ever you decide. Huggies, Fay

Wow, that turned out great. I do think it needs borders though.
|
I agree with at least one border and maybe 2 - it really does all depend on the final size you are looking for. I think a dark border would draw the eye to all the colors in the quilt.
|
I agree, it's a gorgeous quilt that would be further enhanced by borders. The quilt is so busy, I would keep it simple. I'll be watching to see what you decide. :thumbup: :D

It's absolutely beautiful as it is..but if you need it to grow then I would add borders. However it is absolutely beautiful as is.
