I had a vision what my borders would be for Oh Wonderful, Summer's Here and they did not disappoint me.  
After sewing on two borders, my top was hung onto the design wall, I stepped back and "oh my" were the words that came out of my mouth. I knew those borders would enhance my top, but not as much as shown below.  I'm doing the happy, happy dance.  :o)
The next photo shows the other two borders sewn on.  This project is now a completed top.  The size:  99-1/2" x 99-1/2".  Love it!!!!
The journey was a long one, but what a thrill to have it all done.  
You want to know something?   I feel absolutely lost now that this 
project is done!  It was started in April 2011 and has been my summer 
project since then.
Have a day!

I love the results. Congratulations on such a grand finish.
the borders look fantastic.........nice and simple....frames it well..........yes happy but sad to finish a big project........
Absolutely beautiful!! The borders are wonderful, as is the centre! What are your plans for the quilting? I hope you can find another project to make up for the feeling of loss of this one :-)
It is beautiful. I am not one to like borders on quilts. But, I do agree here, it really was needed. Great choice the color is just right. Yeah on your finish, so many stitches only a quilter could understand. I get that lost feeling after a finish too, I am sure you will find a new project to focus on now.
Great choice for the borders - they finish off that top beautifully!
Wow it's SO PRETTY! I love it, want me address lol.
Oh gosh it's spectacular!
A very interesting design. Would make a good dent in my scrap basket.
Gorgeous!!!!!!
It looks amazing! Can't wait to see it in person. Isn't is funny how we feel lost when a project is completed!

I really LOVE this quilt (and I'm not a "scrappy" person! If you're feeling too lost, you could always start making another one, but for me this time?
