puzzled by dresden plate**

this is the one i made and not sure how to finish....
I have a dresden plate quilt that I am not sure how to finish.   I have very little of the green left. Any thoughts on how to finish?? I found this idea on pinterest by typing in "dresden plates".  I am needing to add a fairly large border. Any ideas.?  Here is  a pic of mine above.    The one I liked is here http://quiltinspiration.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html

I love this setting! Very unique! Can you use the background of the Dresden plates to frame your quilt top and then add another fabric for your border? Just an idea!

You could make a piano key border, then bind with the remaining green. Pretty dresdens.
