I do like the paisley, but I wish you had mitered your corners with the black print border. Would you have enough fabric to do that? I love mitered corners when it comes to a border print.

I like both, but then, I have a thing for paisley. Are you adding a border to grow the quilt to a certain size? Because if not, the butterfly border is just beautiful as is. Hmmm. Whatever you decide, it looks great!

I like it WITHOUT, even though I think the pink paisley is very pretty. My reason: I think the added pink border dilutes the contrast of the dark brown floral. It's a lovely quilt and I think that wide dark brown finishes it beautifully all by itself.

I would vote for not adding the pink. The black border is beautiful and really makes the beautiful quilt pop. Really love the print in the black. Is it a Moda print?
