I think the paisley print would be nice. Do you have enough of it?

I agree, go with the darkest blue you have left which guess is the paisley fabric. A dark blue however, would really make your quilt pop.

Your's is beautiful and they line up better than mines. Double wow! this is the same pattern I am using for my dad's quilt that I have been working on the last month. Could not decide which blue to give him and my brother. Have that blue fabric with the same curve symbols. Small world.

I would probably use the paisley print. It has all the shades and tones in it

Did you try quiltshops.com by putting in the fabric line or name? Or do you have enough of all the fabrics to do a pieced or piano key border?

Do you still have some selvedge of your dark blue? Go online to the company and you may find some more. It's worth a try.

Dark blue like so many others have said. Wanted to tell you that it's beautiful and great work. I use this pattern often for table runners and wall hangings and didn't realize that 3 fabs in the same color would look as stunning as yours does. Thanks for letting me drool. MY 17 yo DD also loves it.

I too vote for a paisley border. What is your backing material?
