Help me decide borders
I made this D9P with mostly blue and yellow. Two fabrics have some pink. I bought this pink fabric but now I think it is too bright? I'm not very good at picking out colors so I would like some of your expert opinions also what color would you put on the back.

agree with the others. Yellow inner and blue outer. The pink is the wrong shade of pink from what I can see. It looks like a little deeper rose or coral. Maybe if you like the pink, find one a little darker and use it for the binding.

I agree with yellow inner and blue outer border. I would also like the light and dark blue as borders. The pink is too much of a contrast for a border but if you really like it I think it would be fine as the backing. Personally I would do the inner border in yellow, the outer border, binding and backing all in the light blue because I would quilt it in off white or light blue thread and I like to have my backing the same color as the quilt thread to help hide boo-boos!!
