Hi!
I bought this kit in Alaska last fall and while it is meant to be a wall hanging of 48" square I have made it into a snuggle quilt for my husband's birthday ( on Sunday! YIKES!) by adding the black border and the one next to it.

Can I leave the side borders of black off to make the quilt more quilt shaped or should I continue on to make it a square?

I want to finish the top today and possibly get it layered!

Just beautiful!!

Wonderful quilt. You did a fabulous job. But I think I would add the black. It looks a little unfinished.

WOw, thats stunning! I'm sure hubby will love it!

Stunning quilt! I think I would add the black on the sides. Great job!

Very beautiful................great job !!! I am sure he will love it.

Beautiful! I also would add the side borders. I am sure he's going to love it!

I like it!

WOW I like this alot. So would my husband. Thanks for sharing. It is Beautiful.. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Beautiful! I think I'd go ahead and add the black side borders. If you don't, it will bug you every time you look at the quilt!

Nice work, thanks for sharing. It is just beautiful!

Oh that is sure nice.

Beautiful quilt. I love the eagle!!!

Really pretty!!! But I think I would add the black. And if your husband Paul doesn't like it, I'm sure that my husband, Paul, would! :wink:

beautiful quilt!
My husband loves eagles and anything patriotic so he thought it was "magnificent" :thumbup:

I would add the borders. It is a beautiful quilt! :lol:

Thanks guys!

The borders are added and I am pleased that I did it! I also layered and quilted it this afternoon.

Have to bind it and make a label, but that won't be a problem. Paul will surely sleep in on his birthday and I'll get it done! From cutting board to birthday boy in two days... that's a new record for me!

Very nice. Great job. Paul is going to love it.

AWESOME :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

That's stunning!

And now that it's too late.... I would have left the side borders off, put the black border top and bottom, and then bound it with black. :D

Oooo, he is going to love it!! Great job.

Oh that is gorgeous! :)

BEAUTIFUL!!!

Beautiful quilt!!! I'm sure he's going to LOVE it!!! :D

That is a beautiful quilt. How about a thin border of black at the sides. I think it needs it.

Pretty! Can't wait to see his reaction!

That is stunning! Is it a vacation souvenir? The black makes the center stand out and pop. I'd keep it.
