Can we play "pick that binding"?
1 Attachment(s)
I'm having trouble picking the binding for this wall hanging, mostly because it will be hanging on pink walls. Originally, I was going to use the black stripe (top) to give it some pop against the pink walls but now that I see it, I worry that it might be too much. Then I thought I'd soften it with the gray stripe (right) but it looks pretty much the same as the black and there is no gray in the wall hanging. Next I moved on to the pink sprinkles (top left) because it is the backing fabric and I can be lazy and just pull it over to the top when binding but I don't know how I feel about the look. So the red dot (bottom left) is really the only other option I have without going to go to the store.
What do you think? Black stripe, gray stripe, pink sprinkles, red dot, or none of the above? Thanks! |
How about one of the stripes with the red dot as a peeper ??

Red dots. It pulls out the red and doesnt compete since it’s a tiny dot print.

I know you said, that's your options without going to the store, but ......
......... just in case you never thought about this ...... I would go for one of your deeper/darker reds. It would frame your piece up nicely and would really bring out the brighter reds. |
Red dots. Always nice to use what you have.

I agree with QuiltE ... a red binding.
|
I would use the red dots
|
I like the red dots too. It will be awesome
|
One theory about picking binding color is to choose the darkest color in your quilt. Saying that, the red dots or a darker red would work :-)
