Wow, I love your quilt. Did the fabric come together as a pack or did you pick all of the fabrics? I am fairly new also and I would have never picked all the fabrics that you show. I'm not that talented, but the fabrics are so awesome. I love the pattern also. I'm going to have to do a D9P. Thank you for sharing.

I would do a narow red, then wider green with binding done in the green also. As a rule I usually do my binding in the same fabric as the border it is sewn to. Flows so much better to me that way. Beautiful quilt. Can't wait to see your finished work. You can try this trick I read about and tried and I feel it really helps, lay out the quilt with the different choices and just leave them for a few days and go every once in a while and check on them. A fresh perspective each time. It helps me alot more then constantly studing them. Hope that made sense.

I like the red for the border, it will bring out the red used in the quilt itself. You can use the other one for a second border followed by the stripe for the binding.

A light green flange and the red for the border.
|
Slim green inner border, wide red outer border, definitely! Beautiful ;-)
|
I think a smaller red border and a larger green border.
Nice Quilt!!! |
I always choose border based on where the quilt is to be used or given. I personally like the green border with 1" red inner/stopper border. If main color of room is green then green border, or red border if the accents in room are red.

I think the red would look really good.

I would do a 2" inner border of red to frame it, then a wider of green and then your striped binding as you had planned. The striped binding should really set it off and give it it's personality(not that it doesn't already have one,)
