    Like the ladies here, I agree with the dark green (choice #1), but I would use the dark green as the binding, too.

    So, dark green, print, dark green.

    Very thoughtful of you to make this. It's beautiful, seeming antique. The colors - beautiful.

    Its a lovely quilt and a very kind gesture. Personally I would go with the dark green. I would love to see a picture of the final quilt.

    Beautiful quilt, very thoughtful. Love the colors I really like the purple, its my favorite color, but the dark green adds more constrast.

    I like the green small inner border with the 3.5 outer border and the purple for the binding. Great choices.

    I love the dark green small border, then the floral, with purple binding...

    I second the motion on this one. But, the purple used in place of the dark green would also be nice.

    I like the small border and binding in purple. The gree doesn't work for me and I think the black is too harsh. The big extra borders is too much for my taste. Good luck with all
