What border would you recommend? Help! :-)

I would put a narrow border of the green, then the blue. I think the blue works better if you use the green first. The heart fabric is interesting too, but I wouldn't put it next to the quilt. I would add a third border and put the green first, then the heart fabric, then the blue.

Lovely quilt. You could do a 2 color border-1 side in the blue and 1 side in the green with mitered corners for a frame and then then add another border if needed. It looks great even without any additions!!

I am always fascinated by these type of questions. I think a bright blue stop border would be great. When I first looked at the quilt, before reading the question, that was what I thought. I really like stop borders because it signals a transition, at least to me. The quilt reads predominantly blue to me and I think the blue would be a suitable choice. Please show us your finished quilt. It is very pretty.

I like a narrow white border of the white. Maybe 2 inches finished. THen add a wider border of the 2 inch blocks like you have in the center. Pretty quilt. Or the narrow border then a piano key border of the fabrics in the center.
