The black with a bright is good, but I like the I love my cats one. It seems more in proportion with the design and adds more life than the black/bright option.

I'd vote for the green borders as edge or the black with the peachy pink. You have a lot going on for me you need a 'rest' for the eye.

Your quilt is absolutely gorgeous and one of the cutest I have seen!! You have used a magnificent color selection !! I would prefer something softer that will stand more in the background then being busy. The cats are what you want to be seen, not the border. With quilts that are busy, a toned down border will look best. Good luck !!

Question, anyone. I'm making a quilt for my son. He's a true country boy -- loves to fish, hunt, drive John Deere tractors. I bought a John Deere print and some plain black fabric. I'm wondering how to Incorporate / break it up - into some type of design. Andy ideas?
