The middle is quilted embroidered it but just not sure what to do with the four orders. Do I do each separate or all over. I do know what I am doing on the big last border. Doing this for a friend.

I'm not much good at deciding on how to quilt things, takes me forever to decide, but on this I think I would do something different in each border to make them stand out.

Are you using your hoop and machine embroidery to quilt it? I would treat the borders however a motif will fit in them. If I had an embroidery motif big enough to fit across all 4 colours, I would use it( less hooping). If not, I would place smaller ones down each colour.

Mine idea would be feathers or leaves to keep with the floral theme.
