Welcome to the Quilting Board!
This border fabric-yay or nay?
It mostly has all the colors from the top but instead of pink, it has orange. When I look at it that's all I see but I don't know that I'd find anything closer. Another option is to use a solid border (I think I have enough of the dark brown I used for the stripes).

I can't tell from the pic if the background color for the border is black or brown. As long as it's the same as the window sashing, I think it's perfect.
Cute quilt!
This may not work at all, but what about trying a narrow orange border that would match the orange in the print, and then the printed borderOriginally Posted by Bree123

Exactly the thing I was thinking!
A quilt is like a good life. It's full of mistakes, but, in the end, it looks pretty good.
They're both brown but the stripes are a darker brown. I don't have a shop here so I have to order online, and sometimes I have to make an uneducated guess about whether or not something will match. lol
I would probably go boring and put an inner thin pink border and then an outer brown one--but probably solid brown, even if I were tired of brown.
I think put a dark brown strip first, to frame it, then the border. I am sure whatever you do will be lovely!
I like this idea, or a white framing border, but I really like your print.
this was my thought too. I like the print as the border, do not notice the Orange at all.
This would be my choice also. Love the fabrics in the quilt and I think the border print works well.
