Border advice on this Irish Sunbonnet Sue Please?
#141
Thank you all. I'm currently working on adding the embroidery details on the vine/butterfly border. I know some didn't care for it, but it's fused down and there's no way I'm removing it at this point. I might be able to removed the loudest butterfly, though it doesn't look so obvious when viewed with the whole quilt. I'm wondering if I'm finding the pieced border a bit distracted because it's on point? I'm going to see how I like just a straight pieced border, but will definitely stick with the pieced look.

I love your quilt! I would do the pieced border, but insert a 2 inch strip of the pink floral (that was in the last picture) between the pieced border and the quilt top itself. It would be a really nice finish that way, and will show off both the quilt itself AND the pieced border. Lovely quilt!
