Quilter65...any of your choices will look pretty! I like the stripes and alternating red/green ribbon in your last pic...love your border print!
I decided to do the ribbon border as my first round...seems softer against the appliqué than the more geometric borders...so while I am busy un-sewing some 1/4 triangles ( it doesn't work for me to try to sew at 3am when I can't sleep!!!), should I float the ribbon or not? Mama hen was kind enough to head me in the direction of her gorgeous ribbon border pattern, but I decided to keep this simple and use the quilterscache pattern. The dark blue is actually a batik with blue, green and a bit of purple....hoping to do a darker border with the next round. Your quilts are all so beautiful....I don't kid myself for a moment that mine measures up! But I am having fun!
