First one looks best to me. I think any other designs in the border take away from the quilt itself.

2nd one (corners) or the last one (wide bargello strip).

I'd also stay with the first and most simple border. The quilt is stunning and speaks for itself without the need for a busier border to take away from it.

First is my choice - bargellos are beautiful and I would rather people looked at the quilt and not get their eyes drawn to the border. I have decided I am going to tackle a bargello soon.Yours is gorgeous.
