B because it does not overpower the quilt design.

I like B best, it adds movement without overpowering the quilt. C would be my second choice, but it's just a touch too heavy. A doesn't add anything to the quilt. D overwhelms the quilt.

I keep going back to "B" but I think it depends on who it's for. My granddaughter love's illusion so that would be "D". I like "B".

A or B both C&D take away from the beauty of the quilt, eyes are drawn to the border. Do you have a solid? My next question why are you using black? Perhaps one of the other colors in the quilt will make it look softer in my opinion. Yes I love black, but I don't think I like it on this quilt, but I can't see the entire quilt, from the pictures. The other colors look great.

I like B best because it does not distract from the quilt. It is more girly. A is good but a bit more neutral. C and D are way too bold for this beautiful quilt.
