    I like it. Look at it a few days in different rooms and if you still question yourself find a different border.

    If I remember the movie, Scarlett made a dress out of her drapes? you have more options than she did. In the spirit of the story I say use what you have.

    I like the green better.

    If you do use the brown, be aware of where you cut the strips - they do make "stripes" - my preference would be to have each border look similar.

    I would keep the small pink inner border and go with the larger green outer border.

    The patterned (brown?) larger border, IMHO, is TOO much.

    The small pink and larger green give the quilt a warmer look.

    But that's just MHO.
