I like "A" because it continues into the starry night. It gives it a new dimension! To infinity and Beyond! :) Choice B gets a little crazy for me :/ Especially when it touches the same pattern square.

I agree, if you use Option B especially, I would use a narrow solid color to separate the wide border from the quilt. For some reason my eyes read wide borders as an attempt to make a small quilt top larger.
