Design Wall Monday

All the Posies are stitched in place and ready to be assembled into a quilt.  But this border is saying yuk-a-doody(that's a technical term).  The idea was to make this quilt without shopping for more fabric.  Peggy(the customer) is fine with how it looks.  Borders can be tricky.  They're suppose to make the quilt stop.  This one doesn't seem to stop. (...This is the quilt that never ends, it just goes on and on my friend, somebody started making it not knowing what it was, and she'll continue making it forever just because...this is the quilt that doesn't end.....)
If you remember Lambchop you understand.
Do you think if I scalloped the border it would help?  Or maybe do a Lynn Wilder trademark flange?  
 Maybe I should do a border like in these two projects?  

Guess it's time to switch projects until the inspiration comes for the border.  Well that is after I clean up all the cotton candy fabric scraps.  
Until next time "Quilt out of your Comfort Zone!"

  2. You know we're all going to chime in here with our two cents! I'd go with a pretty, deep cut scallop and a pink binding. :)
