Default audition fabrics for "Oh Poppycock"

Continuing on the poppy quilt as I am preparing borders, I got stuck and can't decide which on I like better.

Here is the beginning:

http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...k-t270197.html

Let Me know which one you like! One is more on the fun side and the other more traditional. I like them both so need the votes to help. Size is not a matter, it is not for anyone in particular and is waiting for a forever home.

Thanks in advance of all your help.

Personally I like the green better. It fits in with the pattern an design of the poppies better

Real kool quilt. I like the first border but I am drawn to the second. So guess I will have to say the second border. Which ever one you use it will be a super quilt. BrendaK

I like the 2nd option with the bright narrow accent and the green. You have a busy focus fabric and the plaid is a busy plaid. Just my opinion.

Either border is nice. I think I would go with the green just because it lets the center piecing shine.

I like both equally. One is more conservative, and expected. The plaid is more playful, but looks equally nice.
