Your quilt is beautiful! I vote for the first one, but I also like the one with points in the border.

I love the looks of the one with the narrow strip of bargello in between the two dark borders.

Beautiful quilt!

I like the first one, the simplicity of the border lets the bargello shine!

I like the first one ... does not take away from the bargello...

1st one is lovely and simple. Shows off the quilt beautifully

I personally like the corner stones.

Beautiful quilt! You didn't show this, but what about a simple narrow dark border, then a simple very narrow light border, then a simple wide border?

I think dark against the bargello would set it off more. I vote for nothing complicated whatever you do. Show us pics when it is done!

First of all, this is a lovely quilt, even seeing just part of it. Think I'd vote for the first border choice but suspect all would be lovely. My thought is that the others might compete with the center you've created.

I think just the dark green border. It sets off all of those light colors. Beautiful color choices.

Like the simple plain border that highlights the pieced quilt. Wouldn't want anything to distract from the quilt.
