    Do you think this will need another border? Something solid? Or can it stand on its own? It measures 60 x 68.

    I think a boarder in a solid would give the eye a rest. Really pretty.

    It might need a border, but I love it like it is.
    The sashing is different than anything I use and it looks really nice. I just never thought about a floral sashing, I will next time, though. Great looking quilt.

    Great job, I love it!
    I like the way it looks with no border.

    I think a border is the finishing touch on every quilt. I say go for it
