Pink. You have a lot of movement in the quilt and the green would be a distraction from the rest of the to me.

I agree...

I vote for the green. Less distraction from the pink inner strips.

I echo others in saying go with the pink. I like the green color but it's not strong enough to stand out. Your flower print is cheerful, reminds me of a field of daisies.

Not enough contrast between green and blue, IMHO. I think the pink "closes" the quilt, with the green, your eye travels off the edge. Lovely.

I vote for pink. It "echoes" and balances the other border. The green is "lost".
