Oh, That looks wonderful! It really pulls everything together.

That's a perfect choice! The border design copies the palm tree trunks.

Perfect.

PERFECT CHOICE!! How happy you must be that you opened you thoughts to something different. I get "stuck" in a thought mode and sometimes don't think to look outside that mode but you did and it really paid off.

WOW that border is perfect and perfectly done! Love It!!

This is a wonderful border. It looks like the border was as much work as the quilt! I am a new quilter and have never done anything other than a plain straight piece of fabric border, in fact I didn't even know they had border books. How on earth do you finish all those little points on the edge? Oh my gosh, and those mitered corners! I think this is way way way over my head. It is beautiful.

Have a Blessed day

That's the best border. Is it too late to vote for that one?

ShirlinAZ 06-19-2011 07:54 AM

Wow! That's really great. Makes me feel like I'm looking at the tropics through the door of a latticed gazebo!
