The next border on the medallion is 2.5" squares. I had some trays of Kaffe fabric squares so I pulled all of the light ones and sewed 2 of the 4 borders. I have a combination of pale yellow and white backgrounds so far and this group looks more white. I'm going to look at it again today and decide if it needs to be a better mix of white and yellow. I also have to decide if multi-fabric is the way to go or if I need to just choose 4 fabrics and repeat them over and over. There are lots of decisions on a medallion quilt.
When I see a medallion quilt, it always seems very unified -- one thing -- because of the single center of symmetry. I'm enjoying the border decisions each as their own separate thing.
I like what you're doing with the present border, the quilts is looking wonderful! Just been told my book would be in my mail box Saturday - looking forward to that.
This is a cool quilt to watch grow.

Are you designing as you go, or is there a master pattern?
