I like this idea. I guess I've been spending too much time on the modern quilt blogs because I absolutely love this quilt.

Jan, better you than me! I do not like the striped border at all! That said, you might find a mottled red print and use it to make the quilt square again; get rid of the wonky sides. Then, I would fuse cardinals or a tree with green branches to the new border, allowing it to spread out in whatever direction you want. I don't think the quilt is useable as is. Please let us know what you decide to do. Good luck.

When I first looked at the photo, I thought you were holding it wrong, and and the border was pulled. Oops! Guess not! I can't imagine whoever did that thought it was appropriate to the design - it looks like they were either trying to make it difficult for the next person, or had so little interest in it they just threw on some fabric - so shame on them. I like Karenk's designs with large triangles in the border. As for the quilter cutting into your month, I'd keep it for my month, or as long as you need to complete your design, and not worry about. Why the time constraint?
