Not sure if anyone else needs to see what is meant by a flange, so here is the link I followed to watch a U-Tube video. http://www.quiltbug.com/articles/borders.htm
This reminds me of very fancy Victorian quilts which leave room for lots of cross hatching in the quilting, so you might consider leaving a fairly large white area before adding your next border.
With such a great start you can't go wrong!

This is the center. I am trying to deicide on the next border, I am thinking Red with white applique words (love, cherish etc..) and then finishing with a white border with celtic work as the final border.
Or should that be reversed any suggestions greatly appreciated.
