I hope I don't disappoint anyone, but I took the plunge and added borders. It was just too much too fool around with trying out borders, taking pictures...yadda yadda yadda. They are kinda wacky, but that's what I was looking for. I ended up with another BIG wall quilt! When will I learn??? It's a top....is it finished???? Close enough???


KJ, it is VERY beautiful! The borders are well-chosen and enhance the quilt IMHO.

You didn't disappoint me at all - and yes it is finished - well, apart from the quilting and binding......jennellh

Thats looking really good now Kathyl, just needs quilting....

I like the borders. So, now how are you going to quilt it?

That is so beautiful, it just sings. I enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you for letting us create with you. Polly

Rubbing it in...eh? i was thinking staples might be nice.

Awww shucks Miss Polly. I appreciated (and needed) all the help! Now if we could just have a quilting bee around a rea frame (rather than a cyber one), maybe it would be completely done.

Thanks Gen. It's been fun sharing with the group. Actually, it's kept me working steadily, so I can have a finished top!

Howdy!

The border is perfect; really makes it look more professional, you found a place to say "This top stops here!" Binding? That dark narrow strip you have next to the border, on our right. MO, YMMV.

The top is finished when you say it is. It's a Finished quilt when the quilting is Finished.

I like it. I really, really like it. ;-D

The multi-colored border is absolutely perfect for this quilt! and the outer border is dark enough to hold it all together -- without being stark and feeling not a part of the whole!

Perfect finish I would say!
