    Thanks. I starched and ironed the fabric. Hopefully I'll get the border on tomorrow and start the quilting. I'm thinking of doing FMQ in a sage green all over it, including the white borders, of leaves. I'll post pics as I go.

    What a dear quilt. Love the fabrics. Either way would be fine.

    Very pretty, a border will complete it. Perhaps the white polka dot fabric used in the quilt.

    Lovely quilt. I love the fabrics. I like to "frame a quilt" with a border. How about the white polka dot fabric that's in the quilt for a border and use a blue solid for a binding that matches the blue?
