Finished Quilt Top -- Golden Glow

Last night I finally finished this quilt top. I always, or at least often, have trouble with borders. Luckily I kinda like quilts without any silly borders, but some of them simply scream out for one.

Quilt Top

The first couple layers of this border were a snap -- the fabric choices were so obvious, but then the choices got more complicated -- nothing was perfect, but I think it works pretty well and the dark outer band of the border helps to contain and finish the piece.

My next project is another border -- I have sewed a boarder on one end of the quilt, but I am going to try a different version on the other end, because the first one makes my stomach clench in pain.
