My vote is for One or Three. Too much going on in blocks to have a busy border. Sure is a cute, bright, and happy quilt. :-)

Have you tried a variation on #3...swapping out the stripe for the red?

Red only border, others are too busy, IMO!

I do not know if your mom has dementia, but if she does, the bright colors of the crows will be best. She will focus on the birds. Otherwise I would go with the red.

I like the third picture but add a second border of red. Very pretty.

I'm with Tippy. I like the first one best.

My second choice would be the crows and cherries. I dont' care for the layers of borders, though.
