    Okay call me crazy, but I like the contrast between the two sizes of meander. I wouldn't change a thing, it's beautiful.

    So, so pretty and the experienced "long-armers" have a great suggestion for you with the ribbon effect. This board is so wonderful for the help offered when in desperate need!

    I love the larger effect against the smaller meander. It says "border". I would leave it as is..

    I agree!

    I also like the contrast between the two meandering sizes. However, not seeing the quilt in person, maybe it does look different...but I like what I see in the pic :)

    I was going to say the same thing everyone else has said - I would just double it up and echo it a bit. It is looking fabulous!

    I like the ribbon echo idea, but also like the contrast in size of the meander for the border.

    Why can't you just do the small meandering inside the larger one?
