    Option 3 is my favorite!

      Annis all three are amazing! But if I had to choose I would go for photo 1, right side with the little circles. IMHO. Rita.

        I think I like the last option best, but it looks like any one of them is going to work beautifully!

                Annis, they are all amazing. I vote for the border on the right in the first picture. It gives the eye a place to rest and is a good "container" border as I call it. Could you embroider the circles instead of applique? I have no doubt that whatever you do will be wonderful! geneva

                    Thanks for your input. It looks like it will probably be option 3. I will get the chance to do those circles on my Christmas BOM so won't get out of making them anyway. This quilt needs to be finished this month and possibly quilted too. Today I decided to get some major organizing done. I usually do that in January but would like to get a head start this year. And I'm thinking it's time to start selling some of my quilts that have overtaken the closets. That's what I may be doing in January if I have the time to take pictures and get them posted. The pricing is what will be hard for me. I'm not planning on adding any new quilts to my list for awhile unless they are work related so won't be doing the 2012 BOM. But I will still enjoy seeing what everyone else is doing with theirs.

                      Well, at first I liked the hardest one--the one on the right with the teeny-tiny dots. But, I like option three. I didn't like the striped, I thought it distracted my eye. Which ever you choose, it is going to be wonderful!
