the black is tooo black, a narrow border like 1/2 to 1 inch wide with either the polka dot or the floral would look best, I think.

I think a narrow black border and then a wider polka dot border would look nice. The quilt is very nice.

It looks great! I like the black border but think I would make it a 'zinger' then use the polka dot with black for the binding.

If you have more of the floral use it for a narrow border, then black. If not a narrow border of dots then wider black.

I agree black and then if you want the polka dots, use them. But the black makes the quilt pop. Otherwise it just sits there and blends.
