The orphan HST's quilt

The quicky quilt top from orphan blocks has taken on a life of it's own.   I finally managed to get the borders on yesterday.   My original plan was one white border and one green, quickly done and complete.  It just seemed so plain.  So I started thinking....that always gets me in trouble!
Now I need to decide what to do with the corners.  There's a half baked plan, but that means nothing around here.

  2. Oh I love your red bias border! That just sets off the green. Maybe a red flower with green leaves in the corners? It is going to be a beauty!

  3. Oh this really elevates this quilt - love it! Had to laugh at the comment about thinking- I have a friend who whenever I start with " I was thinking.." stops and reminds me that "thinking always gets you into trouble"... and it does! LOL
