Default Which border would you use, or neither please.

I am slowly coming to a point in my epp project where I will need to appliqué the body to a 2-3 inch border.I have arrived at two choices: the blue floral versus the old looking tan linen look. Which do you like, okay to say neither and give another option, thank you ladies!

So pretty! I think the bottom one shows off the lovely epp better. This is going to be an incredibly beautiful quilt.

I vote for the tan one too, it shows off the EPP beautifully.

I like the tan. I thought I would like the blue to highlight the blue in the blocks but the tan actually makes the blue pop more. It is going yo be gorgeous!

I love your color choices in this quilt, it is so mellow and sweet, I also vote for the tan border.

Thank you, for some reason I always like a lot of pattern when piecing (which is the opposite if how I dress and how my house looks). Give me 50 1/8 yard prints and I am happy as a clam!
