I like the blue also

I think the blue looks nicer

Hands down, blue!!! The gold takes away from the purity of the white snow. The green feels too dominant to me, but the blue ties it all together, keeps it cool and wintry.

I love, love, love the sashing fabric and all your blue backgrounds. They remind me of winter moonlight. Those snowmen are darling. The scarves are great. Good work!

I vote for Blue

I like both colors, but I agree with Irish Gal. It makes the snowmen stand out more.

Green gives it contrast and blue gives it a continuous color flow. It depends on the outcome you are looking for.

Both are beautiful. I would pick the blue.

Have you tried it with the gold inner border and the blue outer border? Just a thought.

I vote for blue.

Blue for me!

I greatly prefer the blue. It keeps with the theme of winter. With the green and gold I worry that the snowmen might melt and disappear. Long live the snowmen because they are so cute and as we all know snowmen are fragile. They need all the icy blue to stay alive.

I don't care for the green/gold. (You know what causes yellow snow, don't you?) If it's between the 2, I prefer the blue but there's something that doesn't let that one "pop". Is it the gray? Have you tried a bit of red somewhere in this border? Maybe one of those skinny flange sorts of trims between the outside gray and blue?

As so many others too I love the blue one. Makes it looks more "winterly" and icy.

Blue is my vote!

Blue for me.

For me, the blue is a bit of 'blue overload'... what with the snowman backgrounds all being blue. It makes the quilt look 'flatter' and less dimensional, without much contrast. Go green or any other color that is in the quilt. How about picking up one of the dark reds?

Love your snowmen. :thumbup: I vote for the blue .... with it the quilt says "cozy on a cold winter evening" .... green says spring is here. But, I live in Los Angeles where we don't have snow and thus I dream of a cozy winter evening !

I think the blue. Be sure to use a darker blue for the binding , to stop the eye.

Blue!

The above message has been found to be too short so I am lengthening it. Me? Wordy me? Too short? Well, I never.

Is it okay now?

I vote for the blue.

I prefer the blue also.

The blue is definitely it ,

Either choice is good, however, I like the blue, especially with the grey sashing; but both are nice. That probably didn't help much did it?

I prefer the Blue. It looks more natural and nature-friendly. Mariah

I like blue!!

I like the sashing in Pic 1 and the border in Pic 2. The brighter sashing sets off the blue in the blocks perfectly, I think, while the sashing in Pic 2 is a little too cool and brings the entire quilt down a bit. Either border works, I think but the blue feels more wintery to me and picks up the blue blocks a bit better.

I like the green for the contrast it provides. Lovely quillt..

I like the second one. The green would be ok too if you used a silver inner border as in the second one. In fact it would pick up bits of green in the quilt, like the scarves. I think it is the "warm" color of the inner border on the first one that's throwing it off for me. Snow is cold, brrr! Even on bright sunny winter days it seems the sun has a white light rather than an orangey light.

I personally like the blue also, but it is definitely your choice. Whichever you decide will be cute as can be, so just pick one and enjoy the process.

I like the green. Green makes the snowmen pop and stand out. Love your snowmen!

Blue is better.

I think the Blue looks better with the Snowmen.

Blue! Blue! Blue!

I love the gold sashing, I think it adds "light", but I like the blue and green equally for the outer border. I do not care for the pale blue sashing as I feel it kind of washes out the body of the quilt.

blue for me
 

I realy like the blue......,

Blue looks better to me - it compliments the quilt squares.

Love the blue border!

I agree with Wildyard- I like the gold sashing, but blue would be my 1st choice for the border.
