Ditto.... I love the way your string quilt is turning out. GREAT colors.

I would just sew the scraps together and then cut strips for the border, the irregular pieces will look great with it. I would do a small border with the dots maybe 1 inch. For binding use the dots.

How about the bright, dark blue?

I vote for dark blue, you did a great job, I like that pattern, where did you find it?

never mind! I should read better before asking questions.

Love it! Great use of scraps!!!Think I would do a thin(1 1/2") border in navy/black then wider border in the spot then bind in navy/black! It will be stunning whatever you do!!

Thanks so much for the suggestions. I have some dark purple that might work well for a thin inner border - then will use the dots for outer border. Appreciate the help!!
