Border in Order



It was an amazing weekend.

Beautiful weather and a bonfire with good friends.

I think summer is here.


At least the flowers are thinking so!!

I managed to get all the pansies together but I think it needs a border.

I want to tie in the flower centers with using some more to this dragonfly fabric.



Any suggestions for border ideas?


Sunny skies,

Christa

  1. Your Comumbine are beautiful. My blue/purple ones were beautiful as well this year. They are done blooming already and it seemed like a short season. I posted a photo on my blog: Http://sweetpeasandpossum.blogspot.com
    We are having cool weather here in OH this week which is appreciated after the 94 degrees of Memorial Weekend.
    I love following your blog and really appreciate your family business!

  2. You're gonna hate my opinion, BUT.....a small purple border that's the same size as your white flower sashing, but extended it through a larger final white border. And bind it in the same purple as the first border. Get it?? So a small purple border criss crosses a larger white one. I can draw it easier than explaining!!! and yesterday, no time to stop at the Prairie Rose.
