I was going to say the green, but looks like i've been out voted. It is sweet with either one.
|
I like the orange best
|
I like the green because it blends and "flows" better. When I look at the one with the orange, all I see is the orange because it overtakes the quilt. If you use the orange, I would make it very narrow.
|
i like the light green as the orange seems to draw my eye away from the middle
|
I like the orange!
|
Narrow orange border!
|
I like the green best. It draws the eye from the primary fabric with the large circles to the animal print of your outer border with ease.
|
Definitely the orange only a little narrower
|
I like the orange. It really does make things pop!
|
My first instinct says go with the orange, just makes the entire quilt pop.
|
I vote for the orange, very cute!
|
Definitely the orange. It brings all the other colors in the quilt out and makes them brighter.
|
Orange, but then I like bright colors.
|
Orange for sure, it pops
|
I don't really love either one. How about an orange that matches the animals better.
|
I pick the light green. It helps the eye flow out to the edge.
|
The orange
|
I prefer the orange as it adds pop to the quilt and also brings out the oranges in the quilt itself. But then I like bright colors to so I guess I'm biase.
|
I like the green. The yellow is too strong at the current width. It pulls the eye away from the quilt's interior. If you want to use the yellow, which is stronger than what's in the quilt, drop the width to about an inch finished width.

i like the orange!!
|
I'm with the green as it's a bit more soothing and on a bed, more conducive to sleep. However, for a wall hanging, I'd use the orange. Both look fine....for me, it depends on the ultimate function of the quilt....
|
I agree with Omacookie...I like the green...I guess I like everything in harmony. I can see the Circles better with this one.
Here is what I do when in doubt (besides ask on here) I take a picture of each, print it out on regular paper and then look at them and go with the one that seems good. |
Love the orange!

That's a tough one. I like them both!

The orange makes all of the fabrics seem brighter.
|
I like the green as it gives the eye a chance to rest before going into the outer border and I think it evens everything out. The orange seems to loud somehow. Great quilt.

I like the orange. That's going to be a very cute quilt!
|
I like the orange too. Nice frame to the quilt
|
I know this is not what you asked, but I would like to see the print as the second border and the orange as the outside, and then I think the orange would be the frame. But that is just me.
|
The green border gives the quilt a softer look, but I like the orange as it gives the quilt a "pop", and something different.
|
I guess it all depends on the effect you are going for. Personally I like the light green as it gives it a restful palette. If the quilt is for some one who likes bright than the orange one.
|
I like the green, it seems to fit better with the feel of the quilt. The orange is too jarring and calls too much attention to itself.
|
I like the green and would use the orange as the binding to add color, the green is softer.
Just my humble opinion. |

Having said that... if you choose to use a middle border I'd go with the orange, but very narrow, like cut an inch border and then you'd have a 1/2 " border to pop!
|
Now this answer is a strange one for me as I do not like green & love orange, but I think the orange is to bright for the rest of the quilt. I think the green would make the rest of the quilt blend better & maybe do the binding in the orange. It is an awesome quilt.

]I think the green looks more consistent with the quilt. The orange stands out too much.[/QUOTE]
I agree with charsuewilson......the orange is way too bold for this quilt. |

Hi, I can't decide which middle border to pick the light green or bright orange. The stripe is the first then either light green or orange then the animal print for outer border. So what do you like in the middle the light green or orange. Thanks bunches for all your input. Oh and I apologize now if my pics show up large....
[ATTACH=CONFIG]431722[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]431723[/ATTACH] OTOH, the orange is a bit harsh. I'd probably have chosen the leaf green or the blue. |
I think definitely the orange. It brings the brights out more without overpowering.
|
I like the orange
