I like the second one here, I agree that the candy print should be left out of the boarder.

how about yellow, dots then red, or just yellow then dots.

candy just seems too busy for the border
(I took the liberty of editing the pictures to see what it would look like)

I really like the punch of the red in the border! It's a great quilt and they all look good so go with what you like best.

I like the yellow and the red...just gives it a little "oomph" or something...lol...maybe which ever one of your choices you leave out you can make the binding with it?... Anyways, cute quilt...please post pics when you are done!!

I really like the yellow, candy and black dots. Makes it look very professional. The yellow really makes the yellow in the squares and the yellow in the candy just "pop"! If I were to change anything, I'd bind it in the black dots fabric instead of introducing another color into the border. Just my opinion.
