Isn't it amazing how the idea for a quilt can kind of hijack our brains until we do something about it????

I like the dark green border. She's going to love this quilt!

Dark green inner and outer borders will really make this quilt pop. The border needs to echo your most predominant color which is dark green. Love the quilt and fabrics! Great job!

What a busy bee you are :). This quilt is going together quite quickly and you are doing a wonderful job. I like the dark green (seems to be my new fav color :))...then the purple. The light green is pretty, but seems to fade into the quilt instead of popping like it ought.
Good luck on your busy, busy week.
Love the quilt :)

Thank you all for your reply's I really appreciate it. I also really appreciate the fact that one of you pointed out that there is a stripe block going the wrong way. I probably would have caught it before the border went on but..... Now I can fix it before it's really complicated to fix. There were 5 of us looking at it last night but none of us caught it. That's how tired I was. Didn't sleep well last night either. Won't be able to work on it today but tomorrow evening I will rip out that block and fix it and put on the borders. Looks like the consenses is dark green so far!!!!

I like the one with the dark green the best. The green frames the main part very well.

You're amazing! I don't know how you get so much done and you are so fast! It is beautiful! Personally, I would go with the dark green for both. I think it would make everything stand out and at the same time tie everything together. It will be beautiful which ever way you do it!
