    Much better! I think I'd do a border of the darker blue a binding of the red and call it "finished".

    WOW! what a difference. I remember the first pic and this new and improved version is awesome. Love it!

    Now what are you going to do with the other borders? Can't wait to see 'cause i really liked them but not on the one they were on!

    You did great!

    That looks great now! Glad you changed the border. What if you add a dark blue with narrow red on each side to separate the 2 blocks and then add some combo of that all around for the final border.

    I'd separate the two large blocks with a solid navy strip and then border the whole thing with solid navy or the red. I really like it.

    I'd do 2 separate quilts -- it won't look right put one on top of the other. I would do a final red border about a third bigger than the white print border you have and bind it and quilt. It's lovely just the way it is. The red would 'finish' the edges and give you nice space to put some quilting on the edges of your quilts. Love your quilts!

    WOW! What a difference that makes. It is awesome. If you leave it as is, I would just put another red border the same size as the first red & then bind it in blue. If you want to make it longer with another block the same size, I think I would add it to the top of the red border but only add a red border to the second block on three sides, but not the bottom. That way you would have just the red border separating the two blocks. Then add the flower border again just around three sides of the second block. Then finish it off as I said earlier. JMO.
