You could do a piano key border using both colors.... I like both ;-)

I would do a narrow border of the blue and a wider border of the brown. Love your fabrics and colors:)

I think you need a 1 inch cream/white border to isolate the points, then the brown.

yes, a bit of white to enlarge the background around it, then blue skinny border and brown larger one. :thumbup:

I like the blue best but incorporating both would be nice.
