But which border?

I've got several more batiks to try, blues, purples, yellows - not a whole lot of reds.

What do you guys think? Any of these or should I keep digging the stash?


Don't like the red. The darker border mimics a wooden picture frame. Think I like that one best!

I think #1 you loose the tree
#2 is the best choice and maybe a couple geko somewhere on the quilt
#3 just doesn't work

do small border of one fabric and then do a larger border of another. It will look like matting and frame
