Default Help with choosing border

This is the 5 minute block and unsure if the star fabric will work as a border. The other seems bland to me. What do you great quilters think would look best

Oh, yes, the darker one - like a frame on an art piece. Lovely quilt. I made the 5 minute block and used a different layout, but I like yours even better. Nice work.

Nicely done! I'd do a small border of a green, followed by a wider border of the purple. JMHO.
Love your color choices!

I like the darker one also. It brings out the quilt better. Thanks for sharing it with us.
