    I love the colors and your choices for border. I have seen quilts where the border was mixed -- like an "L" shape where one border went across the top and down one side and the other border went across the bottom and up the other side. That way you could use both border fabrics.

    Much prefer the second choice, or "solid" green. I think the plaid fights too much with your flower print and your dots and checks. Love your quilt, by the way! Such great colors and prints. And the pattern, too. This is going to be so very very pretty!

    Love how we all get an opinion! I am a fan of the plaid look. It is fun and interesting. The green is fine...but to me it feels expected and a little safe. I would fall in love with the quilt with a plaid border. Cannot wait to see what you choose!

    My vote goes for B. I think there is already enough variety in the fabrics in the body of the quilt.

    I am not a fan of green, but I think it is just perfect on that quilt
