I like the striped fabric on the top and the bottom (your second version)
Really cute quilt

Just Jan

Do you have another row of animals? I think I would leave the animals (Zebras) as the first row, use the stripes for the next-to-last row, then add a row of animals (Monkeys or something) for the last row. It would balance the wide and narrow rows better. I don't care for adding stripes at the top, but it just looks too added on at the bottom and needs a a narrow row of something, preferably animals or jungle print, to finish it. Its a really cute quilt. That's my two cents worth! LOL

Double Ditto for me!

Hope you leave it the first version. It makes it so nicely exotic & goes with the animals on the quilt. Be sure to let us know what you do. I think it is so unique.

I like the thought of another row of animals or something to split the strips! embroidered or applique baby's name!
Awesome quilt! I love the idea and I'm sure I had it first....hahahaha!!!

Yes love it.

i agree, it would look more balanced. Very cute quilt. If you want you can still do that, just cut off half of the bottom stripe and add to the top.

Edit: Lots of opinions for the stripe, that will teach me to read it all before I post!!!

Very cute quilt, however you finish it. I love the wonky blocks!

I agree about using it on the top and bottom both. I wouldn't use any less than 1/3 of it on the top or it still looks too bottom heavy.
