    I vote for the first, simple boarder, to. Really makes all your work pop!

    I agree with the other ladies...the simple border is super. But I also like the idea of a few prairie points to accent the colors in the bargello. Great quilt and colors.

    Totally agree, the others pull your eyes away from the beautiful quilt.

    I like the first option - plain & simple, does not detract from the bargello pattern. I love the quilt, the colours are so calming.

    I agree the first one...but, the prarie points really caught my attention also. Decisions can be so confusing. Good luck and share what you decide.

    I like the first one - your bargello is gorgeous and it won't steal the spotlight.

    I like # 5 Its just enough not to detract from the actual quilt!
