    I agree with quilt mama. I'd do a small black border to finish the quilt, then the larger red (georgeous Asian print).

    I've made the BQ before--as well as the fairly new BQ3.

    I like # 1. Floating the main part of the quilt is very elegant. The red makes it look more american traditional.
    It is gorgeous!

    My personal opinion--I would use black, make it 1/2"-1" wider than the black strips in the quilt itself.

    (Isn't it amazing how many different ideas we have? :mrgreen: )

    Beautiful quilt and I like the 2nd picture with the red Asian print with black binding, as it pull the quilt all together.

    Beautiful quilt! I like them both! Any chance there is enough black for a thin border and the binding?

    I like the black. But you can not go wrong either way! So pretty!
