My suggestion is to bring out the blue.
Very nice quilt.

I think I like the border in the last picture best...narrow yellow then the wider bird print.

The darker bird fabric is powerful. When used in the quilt piecing it works, but the large border of it seems to overpower the quilt. Though I do see that you are going for a size that fits a bed. I agree with BevF's suggestion:

It's a very pretty quilt. Please post it again when it is quilted.

The green one was the most pleasing to my eye. The last one was too much bird print. IMHO

Beautiful fabric with birds. I like the last one, but maybe show one like the last one with the green.
