    It would be so girly and feminie with scalloped borders. And thanks to Catheryn, Queen of Scalloped borders ( beautiful IQ quilt with amazingly elaborate scalloped borders!) for the advice to sew the binding on before cutting. Thanks for that advice!

    Such a cute quilt and it would look great with a special edge. I'm not sure the border is wide enough for a full scallop, but what do I know. I've been too chicken to try also. The wavy border might be nice. Can't wait to see what you decide. It might give me the courage to to try.

    I think scallops would be great! I just scalloped an 88" square quilt. It took some time but it wasn't hard. You will need to use bias binding.

    I know I'm voting after the polls have closed but I agree with everyone who has said scallop the edges. Also I'd like to buy Catheryn a beer for the sew before you cut advice. Filing that away for future reference.
