I like choice number 4 the best, especially if you are going to use the blue on the back. I think this would make the blues pop.
Very pretty quilt by the way.
Have fun!

You have alot of color in the quilt. #2 brings them all together a "quiets" the quilt.

I think I really like #1. It really gives it a punch. However, #3 without a border looks great too

I don't think you could pick one that wouldn't look great. I kept going back and forth on which I'd choose. They all look nice. Really nice quilt!

I'd go with the dark green stripe. It makes the center pieces really pop and frames the quilt nicely. Good luck

Thanks everyone. I went with choice #1 with a narrow, only 1 inch showing on the tan and then a 5" Blue/Green. The quilt is waiting to be sandwiched now. I will show pictures when I get it quilted. Unless It waits for too long, I may show it after sandwiching to ask quilting ideas from y'all.

Since I'm too late for a pick I can't wait to see it finished and by the way, it's a beauty!

I like the last one as well (#6). You know if you give us too many choices, we'll never agree! :lol:

I agree--the skinny border with white, then this blue.
