This is gorgeous. Did you use batiks? I would do a narrow plain border in a darker color and pieced border using additional DP blocks to form a continuos path around the outside.

First, wow! Beautiful fabrics, and great pattern, it looks like you are doing a great job!

Second, it is funny that I would see this post, about what kind of border to do - as I just signed up for a free on-line border class! It is with Quilt University - looks like they have all kinds of great classes. I have never taken a class, so signed up for this class especially created to introduce new students to the University - and it's topic is borders! How to decide what to do.

Maybe you could sign up for the class too (you get everything in just a few minutes after signing up, and it is made so that it doesn't need high-speed, but can be done on dial up).

Check them out:

Good luck, be sure to post a pic of what you finally decide for your beautiful quilt!

It is a drunkards path.. I seen the picture in an ad for Red Hen Fabrics in the back of Feb 2010 Quilt. you should be able to go to www.redhenfabrics.com and see the pattern.. I just looked at the picture and set it together after i made my block.
