What color binding should I use?
1 Attachment(s)
I'm almost finished on this quilt. I need to applique the rest of the oak leaves/vines/acorns on one side and then embroider stems from the vines to the acorns. Hopefully will get that finished this week. Then I can quilt it. I was going to bind in dark red, but my husband says to go with blue or green. What do you think?

I would use red. Beautiful quilt!
|
I'm a red person. I just love the color and it looks like it would go better with all the other colors in your quilt.
BTW, that is a lovely quilt. sassy granny |
How about using scraps of red and blues from the top!
peace |
Gorgeous quilt - bind it in the RED RED RED - it will work wonderfully well, IMO.
|
Although it would be fine with blue or green, I also vote RED. It will really make it pop!
|
What a beautiful job you did! I would bind in dark blue if you truly don't care either way. Of course I've found myself binding almost everything in dark blue recently.
|
What a beautiful quilt!!!!! Red for me too.

beautiful quilt, I would use red or blue
|
Red would look nice but if green or blue matched my room better, I wold use one of those.
|
Beautiful quilt. I would use either red or blue
|
really pretty! With so many colors in the quilt I think you could go with any of them.
|
red or blue would look good. or you can do a combo of both.
|
I agree with the rest of the quilters, red or blue. It sure is one beautiful quilt, love your applique
|
I agree with Tartan, any color in the quilt(except A lighter color)
|
Absolutely red - the top screams red. I can see why your DH said green or blue (predominant colors in the center). But a quilter would see immediately that it should be red. What a lovely job you did! Gorgeous!
|
I would go with blue, although the red would look great too!
|
red..........................
|
I'm going to disagree and say I think you should use the color that is the stems of the appliqué. Just my feeling.
|
red, (my fav) blue or black.
|
Beautiful quilt...please take another picture when it's done. Would love to see it finished.
|
It is a beautiful quilt. I would bind with the blue or red. Not much help, sorry.
|
What color is your backing going to be? Since red, blue or green would go equally as well ... consider the flip side.
If you haven't decided on the back and are waiting to decide on the binding then choose the back accordingly ... I say red :) That is a beautiful quilt!! |
Any would work. Use the one that marches your room the best. But my eye does go to the blue.
|
I think Red would look great! Beautiful quilt!!!
|
It is wonderful, any deep color would do!
|
All I know is, it is a gorgeous quilt.
|
Love the quilt. Great balance of colors. Personally I like the idea of red, would continue the warm feeling of the quilt.
|
Wow Deb, I knew it was going to be gorgeous! I can't wait to see it finished! You've got my vote for red(tell R sorry) depending on the color of your backing.
|
Gorgeous quilt....I vote for red also!
|
I would use the rust color that is in the leaves.
|
Beautiful quilt! I would go with whatever binding goes with your bedroom. Any of the colors will work.
|
Green would go pretty too.

It will be a gorgeous quilt whichever of those colours you choose.
|
I love the blues and dark blue would pull those colors out even more, but red would be great also. Beautiful work!
|
I vote RED to match the center of your log cabins.
That's a gorgeous quilt! |
