The brown border frames the blocks beautifully.

The brown inner border frames it well. I prefer that version.

Oops.... I was late in first response ... board members are SOOOO fast in responding at once....

I checked back to page 2 ... Yes, I agree ... putting the brown as the first inner border bleeds into the basic pattern too much .... your first configuration is better ....

I tried that arrangement and posted the picture on page 2 but in my opinion it didn't turn out quite as attractive as the neutral inner border, especially when I remove the lines in EQ7. I'll try to get another picture without the lines when I get home from work. :)

The one with the brown, using all three solids looks great to me.

My thought exactly. Gorgeous quilt! :-D

I actually tried that setup on page 2 and I think it made the colors feel too "heavy" in some way. Thank you, though! All of the fabrics are so soft... I can't wait to finish my current UFO so that I can move on to this project.

I would definitely use the brown, but perhaps make it an inch or so wider than the cream. Lovely fabric choices!

Really like the last pic. Oops... the last one on page 1.

I love your version with the narrow brown border (first one on p.2). I love the warm wishes pattern and your colors and fabric choices are so pretty :)
