    Can't wait to see what you chose. Keep us posted.
    Peace and blessings,
    I agree, that fabric would look really good as a binding.
    That fabric would be my first choice, or a similar black & white. Or a red print, same red color as in some of the pinwheel blades, because that would set off the yellow centers and, really, the whole design. And I love the quilting--it finishes your piecing instead of competing with it.

    I think I'd go with black but either way, this is going to be a very pretty quilt.

    Black won't draw your eye away from the fun colors
    and unique quilting.

    Thank you all for your input.
    This quilt was quilted by a longarm by Charismah.

    The owner of the quilt chose the color of thread.

    I quilted the squares with wavy lines on purpose so they are supposed to be off center. I have done that on many quilts because it's a more affordable option than straight lines which would require ruler work.
