Your quilt is absolutely lovely! I like the border fabric on the right (the large print) and the way it pulls the colors out. Here's a suggestion...how about using some of the flowers as an applique broderie perse border on a light background?

I like the small flowers. Very pretty.

I am in agreement with the other comments for a solid border. But putting a pinwheel in each corner would give you that floral border interest you are going for. I really like this quilt.

Sometimes a quilt just waits for completion because maybe we realize we need to acquire a bit more skill before we can finish it. This quilt is just amazing in color and scope.

That is a fabulous design. I like the boarder with the large flowers.

What a wonderful pinwheel quilt. What is the size of the pinwheels? Would like to try this myself.

What a neat pattern. I also like the smaller print. BrendaK

Unless you want it larger, I'd just bind it and be done. It's so awesome as it is, it doesn't really need borders.

I would either use a narrow black border, or perhaps a narrow gray border and then the bind it in black. The pinwheels should be the focus.

Far too pretty to sit all alone in a box unfinished and unloved.
