I had to finally make the decision how to cut this large print for the border of the Australian fabric 16 patch quilt top. I decided on matching borders for the 2 long sides and liked it and did the 2 end borders the same way. I like the way the border just blends into the 16 patch center. 61.5" x 77.5".
This closer view shows the variety of colors in the border fabric.

Happy to see the border that I too, liked best… the scalloped pattern on this border fabric, pulls you right in. Adding charisma to the main body of this patch quilt top.

Awesome border fabric choice! I love the way my eye/brain tell me there's a scallop border, but all the work done by the fabric.
Love how those reddish half circles face into the quilt--really nice border choice and cutting...
42 here and cloudy--rain predicted along with thunderstorms tonight...

The border you chose really works beautifully with the quilt! This is the one I guessed you would choose.
Great choice of fabric and well done on its placement! Another dynamite quilt, Wanda!!

This border fabric is perfect! I too love how it blends in and out with the blocks. What a great choice.
So pleased you’ve shown a close up view of the border, the detail is amazing and complements the blocks beautifully.
