I like option #2. It breaks up all the gold. But the choice is really yours, So which one is your heart telling you to go with?

I concurr with Jan and Monika

I also agree with Jan. Please remember to show us your finished quilt. Thanks again for sharing.

I like option one with the yellow border being a little more on the narrow side. The leaves are awesome.

I also like option 1, but both would work. But I'm curious - why is the pieced border not going to work out?

def. 2 with solid as binding

It's too short. It's supposed to go along the top and bottom, but doesn't reach from side to side. I don't have enough of either fabric to make it longer. Oh well, I like how it turned out. I'll take a picture of it pretty quick to share. I will need opinions on backing color too. Then I'll need help figuring out how much backing fabric to buy. :)

Here's a new thread with the finished top. Now I have backing questions. lol

I vote border # 2 ... you need dark not more light..... IMHO
