    Hey Johnette really cute quilt. Love your colors. I think small black and wider pink with black or the green binding.

    I like the idea of a black border with either a pink or green binding.

    I would just go with a black binding. That is the perfect name for that quilt.

    Love the bright quilt! I vote a small black border, then a bigger pink one~

    I would put a black border on it to bring out the black in it. I think borders frame a quilt - like a picture frame does a picture.

    I agree with the thin black border.

    Very nice. Hard to say which color you should pick.. How about a very light pink that you find in the pink colors of the flowers?

    Unless you need the extra width and/or length I would skip the borders and go straight to the black binding.
