    I, like so many others like it just as you have it. I'm not usually an orange person, but the orange border I think ties it all together.

    I feel that your fabric choices are gorgeous and I love them. I think that what you have does work with each other. It is going to be a cheerful quilt. Having said that, ultimately it is a personal preference. Best wishes. :thumbup:

    The orange really frames the blocks and makes them look nice. The narrow orange border is perfect too. My concern is that the bright floral border is too bright. It might just be the picture or lighting, not true to color. All of the fabrics in the baskets seem to be lighter and softer colors. Just thought I'd mention it so that those cute baskets don't get overwhelmed. If the big flower print came from the same line of fabrics, I'm sure it will be lovely.
