Hi!
I love the quilt, and the border you picked.

I would get something different for a border. You could use it along with some of the other colors for throw pillows though. Love the quilt.

I like the floral fabric but it looks a bit too busy for that quilt. Do you have any of the grey in the quilt left? Maybe add a thin border of the grey and then a wider border of the black with the pink polka dots! It is a very nice quilt and I am sure the lucky girl will love it.

I think the floral would work as the back, but not for a border.

Personally, I wouldn't use the floral. I would look for something with a geometric look I think. JMHO

The quilt is beautiful! I wouldn't use the floral - the quilt is modern and minimalist - and floral doesn't go with that style.

I don't think it needs a border at all.

What a lucky girl. The quilt is gorgeous. I agree that the floral isn't the best choice, but who knows? It might look great, too.

I agree. The floral belongs with another quilt!
