That sure is pretty!! I would go with a 4 or 5 inch dark brown border and the binding in the lighter brown.

Oh yes, thin to "finish off" the blocks on the edge. Then a nice wide white one, and then if you have enough from the centers of the stars make binding to really make it pop.

yes, dark for narrow for contrast, then light for wide for contrast against the dark. if this is a 'using' quilt i would finish with dark to help it stay clean. if a showing quilt, i would finish light.

in either case i LOVE your points. just drop-dead gorgeous!

Nice job! I like the pattern and colors. I think I would put a border in the lighter shade and bind it with the darker shade. Any way you do it , you should be proud.
