Almost forgot to show you

Greetings from Finland!

Satu's Block A is finished!


Before I fetched my camera, Fenix was already inspecting the block A.
I'm not sure, if he approved it,
but he said something like this: Mniau... mniauminau...

Which one of the border fabrics is better...
...green or red?

I would be happy,
if you could help me with the decision.

See you and lovely weekend!

Agree, Lovely block you have there!
Green might be best,but sometimes I find it best to wait until the whole quilt is done:-)

Lovely blocks. Both fabrics are so nice...I like the red but then I think that is just because it caught my eye and then I read the words....not really the right way to go about it....like the others I'd wait until I had more blocks together before making decisions...mind you, I don't have anything for borders so I have to wait *LOL*

I think that I would use the red because there seems to be a lot of green already.
Lovely cat, by the way.

I like the green but sometimes you need to have all the blocks together then make the decision. The block looks lovely and puss is very cute too.

I think the red border, it will lift the green instead of blending into it in my humble opinion.
