    Great way to use up your scraps & I'd definitely put on a dark border!

    Love it. I wouldn't add a border. I like the pattern as is.

    WOW - NEAT - great way to use up all that fabric you purchased!

    I'm seeing a centralized red/brown (in the picture) I'd go with that for a plain border - I think it would 'pull out' that centralized color.
