I think like you do MQ2. I tend to shy away from the lighter borders. Any of your choices would be fine...I like the idea of a gold border added but the one you have selected looks washed out and doesn't do justice to your beautiful quilt! You have some deeper, richer golds in your quilt and I bet if you chose a richer gold it would be stunning! JMHO of course.
