Have you thought about borders yet?

You've made my day K. You know how I value your opinion. I'm going to play around with the borders but I like your idea.
Wonderful! :D :D :D
EDIT: went back for a second look - you were right to leave out the solid cube in your second pic - too dominant. Your final layout is perfect! :-D

I agree with what k3n said, regarding borders. I always like to see some of the original fabric in the border as well, if you have enough or some sections of a border perhaps 3-4" wide. This paisley fabric worked wonderfully. You are on your way now, join the addicted crowd.
