I rarely decide on thr final borders before the rest of the top is done. Then I lay out my fabric in different configurations and audition them. In general, I usually opt for either 2 borders (narrow & wider) or add a flange and 1 border. i think of it like artwork and how it looks either with just a frame or with matting added. Do what looks good to you. :)

I like your idea of adding a small, lighter purple border inside the dotted fabric. I think it would definitely add to the quilt, especially since it is a bigger quilt.

No suggestions, just want to say I like your quilts and the inspector.

i like just the one border.

Love the first pic! Purple and orchid and all those combinations make the most beautiful quilts.
