#1 I like the additional color. Beautiful!

#3 frames the quilt nicely with the same weight as the piecing. I think 1 is too heavy and 2 is too light. #3 is GREAT!

I like #3 the best. Looking forward to seeing the finished top.

I think I like the third one best. It's a bit lighter in feel. But the first one is also very nice.

First one.

The first one

Beautiful! I like #1 best.

I was going to say #3 but now I like your new option #4. I agree that it sorta combines the best of #1 and #3. Either way it is a beautiful quilt!

I like the last one. It just frames the center without being too overpowering.

I think that the first one is perfect. It shows off the lovely center. Beautiful.
