    Unhappy UPDATE on which border green or orange

    I started this post http://www.quiltingboard.com/main-f1...t228526-3.html asking for help choosing a middle border and I choose the orange. Now that I have the top done, but not quilted yet, guess what I don't like the quilt. Oh hum not sure why but I don't. Maybe I will feel different once I quilt it and even to do that I really have to get myself motivated to quilt it. Oh well here is the top none the less, not quilted.

    I DO like it very much! I think the orange border really brings your colors together nicely. I think you'll like it when it's finished!

    I like it too - I think quilting will really make it pop. Maybe binding out of the same orange.

    from looking at the quilt I think the orange would be good.

    I think you'll like it once you get it quilted. It's a very pretty quilt.

    I really like it as well. I'm glad you went with orange. Maybe you could set it aside for a day or two and you'll like it again. It really is cute!

    Frequently at this point in the quilt-making process I, also, find I don't like my quilt. But as soon as it is bound and washed, it usually becomes a temporary favorite. Bet yours will too.

    By the way, I didn't respond to the original post though I did see your choices; but I'd have suggested this one if I had written.

    I love it! Once the quilting and binding is done, you will love it, too.
