No, it distracts from the main blocks.

Yellow. Love that pattern and the 3-D effect. Nice job!

My vote, for what it is worth, is no to theyellwo - it seems to detract from the window.

I agree that you could do either way. The yellow makes the whole center pop...without, it's more like looking through those attic windows. Great quilt!

I like the yellow, but I would also see how red looks. I would do one of the folded flanges instead of a true border.

I see a bit of the actual varigation in the yellow...that's what is making me say YES to the yellow..nice way to make the quilt pop.
