Hi. I a almost finished with a quilt top for my daughter's Girl Scout leader. However, I want to make the quilt a little bit larger by adding another border (@3-4 inches).

I've included two pictures, the whole quilt and a closeup. The fabric in the upper right hand corner of the quilt in both pictures is the fabric I originally planned to use for the outermost border.... the colors match well. However, I am second guessing that plan now that the rest of the top is finished. The colors work, but I'm not sure if the pattern works with the rest of the quilt.

As an alternative, I have enough fabric left from the other fabrics in the quilt (a little of some, and a lot of a few others). So, I can make a border out of one of the other more solid colors (or a combination of them) as well.

Any thoughts on the fabric I originally planned on using or other ideas using the more solid fabrics I have already used in the quilt?

Thanks in advance!
