I vote for #2.

I like them all, but think I like #2 best. No matter which you use it is a beautiful quilt.

Love your quilt. Since you like the rust the best I would do a narrow green border and then a wide rust border.

Choice #2 is my favorite. Or like gramarraine suggested, a narrow inside green border and a wider outside border like in Choice #2.

Very pretty...#2 (rust)!

g-maquilts 06-20-2011 05:49 PM

I prefer #2 also

mrs. fitz 06-20-2011 07:58 PM

Choice #2.

I like the green border with a rust edge, but I AM partial to green.

That would be my choice. I would use a narrow green, 2 to 3 inches, and then the rust 5 to 6 inches. I would probably use 2 and 5 or 3 and 6.

Exactly my thought. Along with "Beautiful quilt already!"

I like 3 - it pulls it all together

Beautiful quilt, I like #2.

bjdemir 06-21-2011 07:42 PM

I also like 3, narrower on the white between the green and rust and add the extra to the rust. Beautiful quilt. Your are now probably more confused than ever. But however you finish it, it will be beautiful.

I like #2, especially if you like rust!

jacqstash 06-22-2011 09:18 PM

I love narrow borders first so I would use a 1" green and then how ever many inches you need of the rust. The green will set the quilt off from the rust which seems to be in a lot of the blocks. Good luck and post the completed quilt!

Choice #3

irenecarter 06-27-2011 08:41 PM

I like #2.

NJ Quilter 06-28-2011 04:23 AM

#2 get's my vote - especially since you like rust!
