I agree! I hadnt noticed that. I've played around with it today and I think a half inch border to separate the pattern and the wildmills from the border, then a scrappy 1 and half dark strip using same fabrics from the lattice, then 4inches blue, and I will mitre the corners. Thank you all so much for your suggestions, a bit from here and a bit from there and I think I've found the way.

Wow! that came out beautiful. I like Judy's ideas for the border as well. Can't wait to see the finished product. Thanks for sharing.

Don't forget - no clue on the 29th, next clue is Oct. 6

I am packing as we speak, out of here early in the morning tomorrow. Will be in touch by ipad, and will check the thread before I go to bed tonight.
