I also like Jan's suggestion of the narrow white and then narrow yellow strips.

Both of your possible border choices will work. If it were mine, though, I would go with the white inner border. It seems to be a little bit crisper than the yellow one. Which ever you choose, I would do the binding in the same color/fabric.

I think the white makes the quilt "pop". When you lay them out and look, which one do you keep coming back to? That is the color to choose.

Do I see a darker green block in the quilt? I think something other than the white or yellow would separate the border from the center section. Or is there another color you could pick up from the floral blocks?

The current question is the inner border....white or yellow.

Thanks for any input.

wow, I'm really different I guess. I would put either a very dark green or actually I would use black, not very wide, but that is the way I would go. Definitely not any of the colors of the blocks. You will have to now post what you use as we will all be waiting. Love the colors, looks good. Whatever you chose, have fun with it.
