The quilt is gorgeous but the geometric pattern overwhelms the floral border. Sarah's idea of a complimentary or IMHO a contrasting color between the quilt and the border would really add to this already stunning quilt. You can showcase these ideas by folding the fabric and placing it where it would go and see what you like. Good luck. Your quilt is beautiful.
