Tree of Life needs a border but what???
#1
Here is one of my UFO's. I cannot decide what border to finish this with-- plain or pieced? If pieced, what pattern should I use? I have not worked on this in a long time because I can't decide. Help me. What do you think?

I think it would be neat to put a prairie point edge on the border. If you used all the different green fabrics it would kind of look like falling leaves. Maybe a white border? Then you could do some fancy quilting and edge with prairie points.

Lovely design and colours...this will look fantastic finished. If it were mine, I would stick with a solid border, maybe even pick three colours from within the pattern radiating out, light, medium and then red, like a triple band...hope that makes sense.
Whatever you decide...please show us "what happens next"! Thanks for sharing pics.
