    That is what I thought of as soon as I saw the quilt! :?
    Oh! OH! OH!... Prairie Points...I like that! That would be spectacular. Good idea, Sherri.
    I like that idea too and if I was keeping it I might try to learn how to do them. :lol: Are they hard?
    I like my boss but I have to draw the line someplace. That is why I'm thinking no border....$$ is adding up as it is. Still have to buy the backing, batting and thread to quilt it. Hmmm....now if I had gotten a raise :lol: But alas NO!...we didn't because of budget cuts. But atleast not laid off (yet) either. :wink:

    I hesitate to add red or another color as some suggested. I'm not sure what other color my boss likes besides blue. I would add it if I was keeping it.

    Glad you all like it! I may make myself one too. I like how fast it went together.

    I am partial to blue & white quilts (blue & yellow also). I would use the blue fabric from the top as binding and for the backing, something that strikes your fancy. Does not need to be solid or tone on tone, do something daring! :D

    So pretty! I'd stick with the same blue, too.
