This is one we started at one of our QOVV Sew days - it is Star and Crown by Pat Speth.
I have the inner part of the quilt done, now I need to come up with an idea for the border. Well!! I have an idea, I just don't know if I like it or not -so! We stalled out here:
i think it needs something to stop the Busy, but then I think it needs some busy back in the border - just not too much. Anyways - I got it to here, it goes back into the box until I figure it out... Its not as if I don't have other projects to play with ..... right??
Today I am going to link up with

Thanks for those of you who stopped by to see what I had for sale... I think I may have more on Saturday. For some reason I am in a mood to use it or send it into the world to be used.

Aw, the pups look so cute. You must have a trick to get them to sit in a nice row like that!
It's a beautiful quilt. Sometimes borders aren't all that necessary. Maybe just a dark blue binding or a very thin dark blue one border? Blessings!
Very fun QOV. I'd probably just go with a plain strip border as there is so much going on in the center. Looking forward to seeing what direction you go. The girls look so cute, but I see a bit of side eye. I guess the baths weren't on their agenda.
I agree with your thoughts regarding a border. I look forward to reading what you try! As for the girls. . .mud baths are good for the skin. . .just not so good for the furniture! LOL
that is gorgeous...yea plain border gets my vote
When the time is right, I hope your idea turns out just as you envision!
Very pretty girls!!! That is a gorgeous QOV. Glad your items sold well. I can't wait to drop off my growing rummage sale boxes on Friday this week.
Haha those pups look quite sweet, but I can't imagine bathing them! That is a beautiful quilt. It will be stunning because you always figure it out. :D
Hmm, a border idea you say . . . Well, since it is rather busy, I'd suggest a light / white frame, and then a wider solid red frame. Keep it simple and call it done!
I think a narrow border of either red or blue and then a wider border of a red/blue print where the two colors are kind of evenly distributed.
Hum, maybe a little border with a bigger border. Not completely calming but it might work. Of course, finding the right color and amount of fabric is always a challenge for me!
The collaborative quilt turned out beautifully!
Ohhh, how gorgeous!!!
Those girls are just adorable. Love your quilt and look forward to seeing how you decide to do the border. Have fun! Thanks for sharing with us at Monday Musings.
Aren't the girls cute! Love your Star and Crown so far. Can't wait to see the border you choose. Thanks for sharing on my weekly show and tell, Wednesday Wait Loss.
