In Stitches: Ruby Revisited

Saturday, February 11, 2012

It's been a little while since I mentioned this little Ruby lap quilt. Last time I was talking borders...

I've got the white border on, and I like it, but I think it still needs a coloured border.

I'm thinking of using the gorgeous print I've circled in the photo below. Definitely my favourite in the range. Thoughts?

Stitched With Prayer said...: Gorgeous quilt and I have some Ruby charm packs that I'm really temped to use on this quilt for some instant gratification...if you don't care that I copied you that is. Also, I love the white border, it makes the entire fabric collection 'POP'. I'm wondering if maybe just a bright binding might add the touch of color your looking for to set off the white. Just a thought...Hugs...; February 11, 2012 at 2:40 PM
Stitched With Prayer said...: OOPS, meant to add that I thought your choice for the colorful border would also work as the binding because even though the larger print won't be showcased, it brings out every color in the collection. Again, just a thought, Hugs...; February 11, 2012 at 2:43 PM
