The brown polka dots.
I like Polka dots, any color.

I vote for white dots for border and brown dots for binding. :)

I agree. I think the white makes the quilt pop. The brown blends in too much. If you use the brown, I think you need a narrow border of the white between the quilt and the outer border and bind in the pink.

If I had enough fabric, I would do a narrow border in the pink to frame it without overwhelming it, then the brown polka dot for a wider border. But I love the look of a small border then a larger one.

I like the brown too. bind with the left one maybe.

My choice would be a very narrow strip of the pink then a wider strip of the multi on white and use the brown dots for binding.

My thoughts, also.

I like white polka dots, I too think the brown blends too much with the solid brown, the white does pop more, also agree the pink binding

I'm with this gal. I like the lighter polka dots and the pink or even the brown for the border.

Wow thanks everyone....I like the idea of the white polka dots with the pink material and then the brown polka for the binding...how do I make my strips into binding?
