Gorgeous, I love scrappy quilts. Great work. :thumbup: :thumbup:

I would finish it off with the green and top and bind in green

I need some ideas for a border , or several borders.. anyone want to give some ideas - I tryed doing a braid around the edge, but did not like it for some reason.. borders are not my favorite thing to do - so I am stumped..

I would put a same size green strip at the bottom. Then at the top, put a thinner strip the width of the little blocks, then add a row of blocks and then finish off with a wider same sized strip as used in the sashing and bottom.

That sounds pretty and maybe bind it in one of the purpels

Purple strips would work.
