I was slightly stumped when shopping the stash for a border fabric, as nothing seemed to work. I really wanted to enhance that vibrant blue in the watercolor section on the right. I finally found this blue-green piece in my "landscape" stash of fabrics. I like the way the pieced area blends and flows into it.
A good close up for those of you who asked about the fabric selection. It takes a large collection/selection for this one.
The dragon fly has 3 colors for the body, and 7 colors in the wings. But that is another story....
Renewed----reworked, turned, and added to. I think I will hang this in the sewing room to enjoy for a while.
Happy stitching.

The border really completes the piece perfectly...well done, lady!
Absolutely gorgeous; outstanding. Wow!
It's hard to put into words what I think about this beautiful wall hanging. You found the perfect fabric to frame this gorgeous piece of artwork. The swirls in the border give it a good finished flow.
That border is perfect! Oh, I love that dragon fly. We've seen a lot of them here this summer and they are always a welcome sight.
What an inspired choice for the border. The whole quilt is beautiful -- I hope you are enjoying it daily.
