#1 then #3.

Numbers 2 & 5 don't do anything for me.

I look forward to seeing the finished quilt.

Cheers, K

I like #1 the best. Yes, though I gave a suggestion using the solid dark green, now I don't care for it as much.

Know what you mean. Audition something I think would be perfect and then "nah, not so much." Happened to me on another project just a while ago.

And on the outside where the narrow green border is, I think I will add some of the crimson/gold to make it wider. The lady who does the quilting is very precise and has never lost any width, but I know it must be harder to do so think I will add enough so she can go so far and then trim it down. The crimson/gold sorta reads like a solid. Pity is, if I had realized it sooner, I could have just cut it wider and now I will have to piece it on. Drats!@!
