Somehow, it looks different on a bed, and if you need a bigger, darker border to make it the size you want, then go for it. But if it's a wall quilt, then I like the idea of a skinny light border and the scrappy binding in darks.ForestJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05536396154296555583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15928662.post-87166374019799150282007-07-06T03:32:00.000-07:002007-07-06T03:32:00.000-07:00The star is great...I'd go with the light strip ar...The star is great...I'd go with the light strip around it.

Glad your mom is feeling some better. I do LOVE your fabric purchases! What fun to take all that home and play with it.<BR/>I vote for a light border(mininum) for the really outstanding log cabin star top!!! Beyond that, who knows? I always have to 'see' it before I decide.
