I like the last one best however if you are making it for your bed, make it the size you need. The border won't really impact the quilt as much on a bed as it won't be on the same plane. Most people tend to just "see" what is on the top of the mattress.

I also like the second one. I just recently bought the same panels at out local quilt show. I want to use them on a coat.

I agree with Paws; I like the very narrow inner border with the two color border with the diamonds as the final border. The wider paisley border is a beautiful print but I think it overwhelms your more beautiful quilt blocks.

I like your quilt and I like the first picture with Rhonda K's idea. As my own rule, I avoid leaving a pieced border as the outside border on a quilt. No matter how careful I am I manage to stretch it just enough to annoy myself.

I would use #3 with a narrow binding of the same fabric that you used for the inner border of #2.

I like picture #2 best.. but maybe make the outer border not so wide Maybe make it 1-1/2" narrower???

I really like what you currently have. But if you're not wild about it, then I like the third picture for the skinny border.

The Diamonds rock!

I like the top one with the two colour inner border best. Could you use that same idea for the outer border? If you need to make it bigger you could make the outer brown and blues strips wider. Your quilt is lovely! Love the diamonds!

I like the idea of having the diamond border framed by another border with the narrow strip. But would that make the quilt big enough for a queen bed? Maybe making the larger paisley border narrow would tame it a little. Otherwise, I'd probably do the first option to make it big enough.

I love that line of fabric and have some of it I will be using in the near future.

But for me, I liked the first picture. What are you planning on for the binding or will that depend on what you do with the border?
