Your block is beautiful. I think the simpler the border the better so as not to detract from the block.

Very pretty and I think a braid would look nice, especially if you like to challenge yourself. I like to do different things also and stretch myself.

I don't have any advice but I do want to say that I love the color combo that you chose.

Very pretty and great work. I agree with a floral border.

Great job on your first carpenter's star. As to boarders you should look on google.com at images for carpenter's star. There are some great ideas.

Great job -- you did well with your color choices. I would vote for a dark blue border.
