What kind of border
#12
I am not sure I would add the piano key border. I learned recently (thru experience) that it can take away from the quilt itself. I think a couple of borders using the colors in the quilt might work better.

Very pretty and so good of you to finish it up for her. The dark blue with the piano keys would look great. If you can't match the dark blue in the quilt, I would just choose something that looks nice.

I think it would be pretty with the dark blue as the border but then echo the triangles into the border using the fabrics, as if the largest triangle was coming into the border. I may not have described that well hopefully you get what I mean.

I have read all your replies and thank you for your help have checked the material left---I maybe have enough dark blue to do a fine border then a cream border as I have enough of that,then it comes to the binding I'm not sure yet wether there will be enough of the darker yellow to bind it that's the next biggest peice.
I am hopeless at putting colours together,thank you for your help

Yes it is in strips then cut apart I believe she started it and it was a Mystery quilt---tell you what it was a mystery to me at first but at least she had some blocks made and the instructions were there
Thank you all for you help and hints
