This article caught my attention because my grandmother had a very old quilt that looked so very similar to your piece. There was a border around each block, as you are suggesting and then a very wide border as the finished edge. This border appeared to be unbleached muslin (that's what we call it in KY). It had the feel of linen and it was "off white" in color, making it appear to join all the colors together smoothly.<br />I'm sure whatever you decide to do will be beautiful!Poopseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18081794956138409343noreply@blogger.com
