    Great job and nice choices on the border; looks great! While I see what you mean with the light teal, I disagree! To me, the teal pulls out the colors in the cats and sets off what’s contained within the borders. I really like your quilt and hope you fall in love with it also.

    I love your quilt and think it's absolutely beautiful! I think the light teal gives it zing. Great piecing on the diamond border too.

    I really like your quilt and the borders! The colors look great together. sometimes we look at our quilts too long.
    In my quilt group on Wednesday a woman brought in a quilt she had started 10 years ago. She wasn't pleased with two yellows she had used in different parts of the quilt, so she folded it up and put it in a box and there it sat. Ten years later she found it as she is cleaning out her house to move. We were all in awe of the absolute beauty of the quilt. The two yellows are absolutely wonderful, which only now can she see!! She will finally send out to be quilted.

    I agree with A1Penny; sometimes we look at our quilts to long and overthink things. This quilt is terrific. I think the borders totally work and that whoever gets this quilt is going to b thrilled!

    It turned out beautiful! I personally love the diamonds set in turquoise, it brings it alive with confidence.

    Very nice. I like the pieced border and adding the paisley border brings it out in the cats.
