Which Border

I eliminated some of the prints from the last post and went looking through my stash for more border options.  I also started looking for the perfect backing (since that seems to be a tough decision for me).

What do you think of these border options?  I am certain of the red for the first border, but I am leaning toward one of the green prints on the left for the second border.  Leave me a comment and let me know which one is your favorite.

This pattern is from McCall's Quilting November/December 2011.  I think it would also make a great tree skirt.



Stop over to Judy L's to see what others are working on this week.

3 more sleeps and I will be off to a quilting retreat with around 80 other quilters.  I have my projects picked and packed.  I tried not to pack too much this time.  I am always afraid that I will run out of projects to work on, but this time I tried to be conservative.

  1. This will make a great tree skirt! I really like the colors you used. The print on the lower left is my favorite. It really pulls out some of the colors in the star. Beautiful.

  3. I'm with Jennifer... the gold for the border and green for the binding.

  4. I kind of like it scrappy with just a segment of each of the possible border pieces.
