The blue is great. Bith are pretty but, the blue makes the whole thing pop.
|
# 2 would be my choice.
|
I like the one with the big blue border. Either of them looks good though. so, you can't go wrong.

Dolly in MI Here is where I am now. I think I'll bind in blue. |
Looks like we all agree that #2 is the one.
|
The wider blue on the inside gets my vote. The white border next to white blocks makes it look like something is 'spilling over'. Beautiful quilt....I love the blue and blue floral.
|
Very pretty quilt. I prefer # 2
|
which border?
I love no. 2 best. What is the size of your quilt and pattern you used?
|
I agree with the rest that#2 is best. Beautiful quilt!
|
It needs a stopper and preferably not a color in the quilt but maybe picking up some other color from the print. The stopper does not need to be very wide. Possibly only 1/2 inch.

I like #2 best also.
|
I prefer #2,the blue, the white border seems to take over the quilt.
|
In my opinion, in the first one with white as the inner border, the white is lost into the quilt. You don't even notice it as a border. In the second one, both borders pop because they quilt is separated by the blue border. If it were mine, I would put the blue closest to the quilt, then the white as the second border out.
|
I think #2 is better it really draws your eye to the quilt. Joyce j
|
I prefer #2
|
Both are very pretty but I think the second is the best.
|
Beautiful work! I like #2 and your idea to bind it with the blue.
|
Love your prints and colors. I prefer no. 2. Its sets it off nicely.Jan

Thanks for any input. :) Dina Blue inside, too much white for me. |
i vote for number 2 also. It really "frames" the center.
|
I loved #1 until I saw #2. The difference was amazing! So my vote is #2
|
You made a great choice. I voted for #2; I liked the way the blue blocks joined the border and completed the design.
The floral fabric is lovely. |
I Like Number 2. Great fabric.
|
No. 2 is my preference. Your quilt is lovely!
|
I like the blue inside. It stops the eye before the border begins. Lovely quilt!
|
The darker wider blue for border and also for the binding to pull it all together. Really nice quilt and love your colors.
|
I definitely prefer #2. It gives the eye a place to rest and defines the quilt. I see you have now decided on #2. Good choice and thanks for sharing.

I love the second one with the blue on the inside - beautiful flowers in your blocks
|
I vote for #2
|
I like the one with the blue inner border. To tell you the truth, I didn't ev en realize there was a white border in the other one. I tthought it was part of the body of the quilt.
|
I vote for #2.
|
Love number 2, very pretty quilt!
|
Vote for 2, and nice quilt.
|
Number 2 has a more finished look to me. Nice quilt!
|
I like the blue on the inside, then white and ending with blue.
|
#2 definitely with blue binding. Don't see using green, IMHO. Great quilt!
|
My vote is for the second one. Very pretty quilt!! :)
|
#2 gets my vote but both are gorgeous just a lot of white in #1
