Yes.... a thin (1 inch finished) blue inner border and a black outer border would be great.

Hi, luv it, looks great. I would like to propose a black and white checkers (squares) for the bindings. I would love to make one for my dh. He has a corvette. Can you tell me where you found the fabric? Much appreciated.

I like the blue border idea too. Then add black on the outside.

I am a corvette owner too, and my suggestion is a small red border and a larger black. Sports cars after all should be red!!! LOL
