    The two inner borders on my quilt top I was thinking of doing a reverse on the outer edge of the quilt. In other words to put the lavender next to the piano keyboard or Chinese coin strips border then the dark purple at the same measurements as the inner borders. If I do that then the quilt will measure 70x70. Which will make a nice topper for my queen size bed. Or should I leave it and use the dark purple as a binding?

    I think bigger is better. I would go for the 70x70. By the way fun to see what you did with the fabrics I send from the Secret Pal swap. You are fast!

    I am working on making one queen size. It’s a great use of scraps- I seem to never lack scraps.
