    I like it with the inner border, but don't like the black. I would try and pick up one of the other colors in the quilt and use a darker hue of it.

    Just saw the finsihed top...Love the purple border :thumbup:
    The name of the quilt pattern is Radiant Suns...and I went with the dark purple inner border, but it is so dark that it almost looks black!

    I agree with Kathy. You need the darker inner border to help set off the quilt properly.
