I also like the white/light sashing between the large blocks and the small corner squares in -- is it pink? <br /><br />As I was reading about whether you were going to add a border I looked at the photo and thought, Oh, perfect without a border! Then I looked at the photo with the border and thought the same thing. It's interesting the changes borders make to quilts and how sometimes they add and sometimes they detract from a quilt. <br /><br />I know you probably won't quilt this for a while but I will be interested to see how you decide to quilt it.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136584654825212359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297789041481934828.post-43599091223702583282013-09-17T15:31:03.041-07:002013-09-17T15:31:03.041-07:00Perfect in my eyes.

When it comes to borders, they often look good both with and without them, so it's not always like one is better than the other, they are just different.
