Default What color border should I use...

Here is a quilt I made with all my turquoise scraps and white and off white scarps.. The quilt is for our king size bed and to make it fit and have a good drop on the sides and top and bottom, I need to add a 8 inch border so that it is big enough.

So what do you think of using a 3 inch white border to frame the quilt or smaller and then a 5 inch or bigger turquoise border for the last border?

I did play around with, maybe the turquoise for the first border and then the white for the last border but I think with the white fabric being the biggest it may look like there is to much white.. I really need another set of eyes on this choice of fabrics... Thanks for your help..

Picture should say from this to this...
