    Opinions needed please

    Need some help deciding on border fabric. Does the dark purple or the light purple look better?

    I like the dark, personally. I often think, too, from a practical standpoint, that the border is where fingerprints and other soil accumulates, so I often take that into consideration in choosing my border.

    I like the dark. It seems to "stop" the pattern well.
    Courtesy is not optional.

    Definitely the dark....the lighter fabric just floats away.

    I vote for the dark, and I think your color choices in the quilt are beautiful
