Halloween Sudoku - Border Dilemma -

I got the Halloween Sudoku blocks together - ;))

And since it was already "cut and kitted" -
I had already chosen the side border strip -
I figured that I could trim it up and cut it in half for the left and right sides -

And I had already chosen the top border strip -
I figured that I could trim that up and cut it in half for the top/bottom borders -
But it's too short - so I'll need some cornerstones - ;))

I got the center done and put it all up on the design wall -

And I don't like it -

It's too busy -

And just doesn't look right -

So now it's back to the drawing board - ;))

Since I've already used orange in the cornerstones -

And black in the sashing -

What's left for the border?? -

More black?? - ;))

I only need about 1/3 yard - but that is more than a fat quarter -

So I need to check the yardage in my stash - ;))

I have some black with white dots that might work -

And I have some darker orange tone-one-tone - ;))

Any ideas?? -

I'm open to any and all suggestions - ;))



Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
