I like it without the pink. The brown seems to frame it just right! Beautiful quilt, by the way.

I agree - no pink - less is more. Edie

Gorgeous either way, but my vote is NO PINK.

I would have to agree with spokanequilter. The pink border distracts from the center. Either way, it is a beautiful quilt!!!

Much better with the pink paisley - it takes the quilt from fairly good to a real zinger.

My vote is for the pink - don't care for the paisley. By the way, what pattern are you using? Would love to make one with that pattern.

I like either way, but lean towards without the pink, unless you need the size. Beautiful quilt and love the butterfly fabric.

I didn't read over all of the opinions, but has anyone suggested putting the pink on the inside, then the darker one on the outside?
