The more I think about it, I like the simplicity & the black & bright colors.
I really like the "float" & the border on this version. But boy do you have to be or close to perfect for that border to work...

Wow -- that one is gorgeous!
Beautiful, beautiful, I love the colors....
Those colors are striking! And you're right about that border, it take some concentration and thought that I just don't have right now.....LOL
Judy at Patchwork Times has been posting about borders. If I remember correctly, she says to make them fit, you have to make the top a multiple of the block size. So, it sounds like there is some math and prior planning involved ;-)
great quilt I love the black
hint for borders like that make most of the blocks for the border and then scatter in the border a few that are maybe 1/8th of an inch up to a 1/4th of an inche larger or smaller to make the border fit
it won't be noticeable :) especially after the quilt is quilted.
