Probably because the whole idea of a \u201csouless quilt\u201d is so sad! If this were my souless quilt, here\u2019s what I would do. I would keep it as is, including the white border that is the same width as the squares. Then I would add a 6- or 8-inch wide border in a warm solid color, maybe red, or orange, or magenta. The border would need to be wide enough to balance out the white with color. I would probably do the binding in the same solid as the wide border. Maybe then it would look like the border was trying to contain\/constrain all those active little triangles that are dying to get out of the box, and create some tension. Some applique on the border of escaping\/leaking triangles would be fun, too. That\u2019s it. That\u2019s all I\u2019ve got.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When she wrote that I thought I would see how the quilt would look with a red border. I&#8217;m not sure, though I do see an improvement. I bought the red for something else, but it does add something to the quilt. I would have to make the back larger, if I decided to add another border.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apparently, I am still thinking about this quilt and you are, too.
