I have just finished a top of Eleanor Burn's Day & Night pattern, and now looking at 4 different ideas for borders. Any and all advice is much needed. Thanks for all input.

My first choice is the 3rd picture (light lavender), and a close 2nd is the yellow. I think they frame the quilt better.

yellow - it adds the pop in that you need.
