Your quilt is gorgeous. I would go with feathers on the braid.

What about doing the braid in some 'McTavishing' swirls? That may be a good match for the dense pebble quilting (but I wouldn't do it AS dense as the pebbling), and add some movement through the braids.

Your quilting so far is *aMAZing*! Beautiful top too :)

I would suggest a vine with leaves similar in style to your appliqued vine but perhaps a bit larger in scale. It is truly stunning, a real work of art!

I like your idea about cross-hatch in the braided border to go with the basket. I think that would coordinate very nicely!

This is indeed a lovely quilt. I don't think you need any help. It looks magnificent to me. The colors, the workmanship and the quilting are all superb.
