I have made some progress on my Breast of Friends BOM.
I’m pleased at how is has come together. It is nice and flat and seems to be square. I am still deciding where to go from here. I think a ‘peeper’ or very narrow border needs to be next in a colour that will frame these blocks (dark pink perhaps) Then another wider border with the narrow border fabric as the binding??? I will let it ruminate for a few days while I decide!
Thanks for visiting.

I like your idea of a darker pink as an inside border, to set it off. If you'd rather not make TWO borders, you can just fold a narrow piece of dark pink and sew it into one border as a flange. That's a good effect without making your finished quilt larger.
Definitely the diagonal stripe as binding. That's my favorite way to bind a quilt.
Keep up the great work! This is a beautiful stitchery quilt.
Wow, coming along nicely I'll say looks fabulous - can't wait to see the finished article.
Your colours look great. A dark pink would look great around the border to frame it. I have made that same quilt but I have finished it. I just need to do the bride and groom block and it finished. Im not a keen on as was when I first start it. See how it works out. You might have inspired me
Julie it's gorgeous, I love the way you've put it all together!! Yes, pink is perfect for the peeper ... I'm really enjoying watching this quilt grow :o).
Hugs,
