    Default Double flying geese

    What a busy summer! I've been having so much fun outside, that this quilt top has taken me almost two months ... and, I traveled up north to Whitehorse for a week to go backpacking ... love love love the north! But only in the summer!!!

    So here's my top and I need some suggestions:

    1 - should I have the flying geese straight across the top / bottom and sides
    2 - should I have them curve like an S across the top / bottom and sides

    AND ...

    3 - should I keep all the triangles light purple
    4 - should I use all the colours in the border

    Thanks so much!

    Nice geese. I think doing them in an S would be an interesting border. Not sure what color I would use

    I vote for curving like an S and all the colors, including the light purple. It's beautiful!

    Thank you Thank you for posting those lovely pictures, We were in White Horse years ago 1992 we drove the Al Can highway in the 50 year celebration, Did a lot of touring in the Yukon plus Alaska and I truly think I enjoyed the Yukon more although both was great and a fantastic trip
