    I am in the middle of making a King sized quilt for someone, and can't seem to make up my mind what would be next to add to this photo.. Anyone have any suggestions using Log Cabin blocks ( scrappy in blues, purples, and green shades ), which is what they wanted to incorporate into the quilt... the navy/green border is not sewn on yet, so thats changeable , too ..

    I think making a logcabin border would look awesome. I love how you put them in the corner...maybe a then solid color border than a logcabin border.

    Log cabin blocks would look awesome but if you want something simpler, a piano key border using all your colours would look nice. Do them the same size as the inner squares?
