I would like a 'calmer' border as there is quilte a lote of movement in the quilt.

None of them, they all detract from the quilt. Use a medium sized floral instead. Or black (like background) with accents of the darkest red/pink.

I agree. Maybe a black on black.

That's it! I responded before I viewed the whole thread. You nailed it with the soft yellow and black.

Number 3 definitely if you are deciding between the three but I agree with yours truly and go a different direction-the center is too gerogeous to muck it up with a complicated border pattern-Good Luck

I really like the border that you posted that you came up with the yellow and black. Man that really makes it pop!

Wow, you've tried it. We just got the fractured book in the LQS that I work in. It looks stunning !!! I vote for the third and last border. Thanks for posting.
