I love the black borders. I love the way you put your quilt together. Great job and thanks for sharing.

I agree, the small strip of black and that pretty seaweed that draws the purples and pinks out in your focus fabric.

Well I think you did a great job. I like the black border but not the seaweed so much. Whatever you decide will make it beautiful.

Brings back memories of one of my all time favorite vacations in Bar Harbor, ME. The kids and I went on a whale watching tour which according to the guides "was one of the best they'd ever been on." We saw whale after whale after whale. They came up right under us and were using the bubbles produced by the ships motors like their own private whirlpool. It was beautiful! So's your quilt by the way!
