I just finished the center of this Bargello and am looking at borders. I thought I wanted the black, but now I am thinking one of the reds.

Which do you lean towards?

Thanks for any input.

I like the black, but either will be beautiful!!!

the black shines best but the last red could do well too.

I like the last red.

I like number two, the deep crimson.

I wonder what the brightest red would look like, with a pretty wide binding of black to close the quilt up.

I like the cat.

The Black is wonderful with this quilt. I would make the white inner border a bit narrower.

A lovely creation.

I like them all, but the black makes it brighter and it seems to pop. The red seems to quiet it down. So I guess its what you prefer.

i think the black with the inner white really makes the red in the bargello pop

Just to 'muddy the waters', I wonder what one of the greys would look like. When I have a dilemma like this, I put one possibility on half the quilt and the second possibility on the other half and then walk away. Over the next little while I revisit the room and glance at the quilt. The possibility that I prefer usually jumps out quite quickly.
