I think it needs the "stop border" as in #2, but I would make one of the narrow borders about half the size or less of what you have there. A tiny line separating the other two adds interest.

I like #1 but really either is just fine. The second seems a bit more "dark" while #1 is lighter.
|
Beautiful. #2 has more dimension
|
Both would be beautiful, but I'm casting my vote for #2.
|
Great fabric choices, love the dark blue with purple and black, very nice. I think I like #2 with the narrow inner border of the outside border fabric with the lighter blue in between. It seems to make the blocks "float" that way and make them stand out.
|
Just my opinion but I would leave out the two narrow borders, just use the wide border. This way the quilt pattern will float.

2, thanks for asking
|
#2, the dark inner border makes the pattern stand out more, but both are great, and LOVE the material.

they are both great. I often ask students 'which one do you keep being drawn back to?' One has a very definite edge and the other has a floating look. Both are beautiful in a different way. Trust yourself - too often we second guess ourselves out of the one we prefer. The only thing I would do for sure is to keep the pictures of both. In the future you may want to do the other one.
