I have a question...How do we feel about non symmetrical borders? By this I mean a border that is not the mirror image of itself all the way around. I have a thought on a very pretty border I have seen on a few asian quilts, but have not seen anyone do this in the RR's here. Thoughts please? I'll try and find a photo of what I'm talking about.
(the center will still be centered and have the same size border all around) Hope you understand this...I think I've confused myself! |
I'd love to see a photo so I can picture it. If you think it will fit on mine and an idea just pops right in your head, go for it...I'm game. Would love to see something different.

I think an non-symetrical border would be great...at least on mine so if you want to do one like that, I say go for it. I can picture it in my mind, mainly because I have seen the outer borders on some quilts done that way with an applique flower on opposite corners of the border. I think it would be cool and perhaps the next person could do the same except on opposite corners. Just a thought but I like the idea.

Anyone starting on borders yet? Would love to see some pictures....

tlambing I will be shipping yours on its way Tuesday also. Did my round today. Since you said you liked brown, thought every quilt needs a little chocolate and then matched the blue in your center. Hope you like it.[ATTACH=CONFIG]433533[/ATTACH]Need to iron it a little better but wanted to show you. Don't be shy, if you don't like it let me know, I can take it off real easy and start anew.
