    I love the red floral border - it contains all the colors of the body of the quilt and pulls it all together.

    Wow! Great top of blocks. They look fantastic. :-)

    I like the brown option (along with the tan and red in that group). For me, the brown contains the top and the red and tan help collect it all together.

    The red floral on the right, although pretty, competes too much with the blocks. My eyes didn't know which to look at first.

    I sure hope you post a picture when you have it completed. It proves to beautiful.

    best,

    I like the one on the right, however I would skip the first light strip and use the the next red strip against the quilt.....I think it would make it stand out.......but definitely go with the one on the right

    I think the brown one complements it very well. They are both beautiful fabrics, but the brown one seems to tie everything together better.

    I vote for the brown tone border. It drew my eye first.

    I think the brown makes your quilt shine!
