I would add the green but if you need it bigger then add the brown after the green but which ever you choose it is lovely (even without a boarder it is beautiful)

Both are nice, I would just bind it myself, for the simplicity of letting the applique stand out

I vote for the first one. It really makes the center pop. Beautiful quilt.

Brown border and use the green for the binding- it is a beautiful table topper!

Definately the first border. The larger scale print is better. The other one is too close in scale to the light border. Plus the larger scale print seems to pick up a lot of the other colors in the quilt.

Wow you got a lot of opinions on this one! ;) I agree with the overwhelming majority...both borders are nice but the first just gives it that extra oomph! I love this quilt, everything about it is stunning :)
