    #3 - move stars to upper left and lower right and miter other corners. This will continue the asymetrical theme.

    If you have already cut the border fabric and do not have enough to miter then go with stars in all corners. The border fabric begs to be mitered.

    I like them all but I think I prefer number 2 as it doesn't detract from the main design. I would also go with ghe mitred corners. It's going to be lovely when it's finished.

    No 1, it pulls in the stars from the quilt itself.
