12-1/2" BOM Sampler

The quilt top is together and I'm wondering whether or not to add borders.  The idea was to only use fabric from a f/q pack I had (Sandy Gervais - Anticipation) plus some background (Moda Bella Solid - Fig Tree Cream) from my stash.  I'm a bit concerned that I'll need to buy more of the cream fabric if I make the border I have in mind.  Might make one strip of border and see how I go - I can always use it in the backing as it will be pieced from the leftover fabrics.


This top measures ~46-1/2" x 61" at the moment.

Lunch with The Schoolgirls today and dinner with friends tonight, no plans for tomorrow except ironing, then back to work on Monday - I feel like I've been on holidays for ages but I'm sure that will change come Monday morning.
