    I like the yellow a lot. I think it's fine the way it is.

    I'd go with a dark border and it will tone the yellow. On the photo it looks great. It isn't that wide of a strip of yellow

    I think that is great. The yellow makes the other colors pop

    What's wrong with the yellow? It pretty and colorful. I'd only add another border if you need to make it bigger. I love the quilt, can I have it...lol

    I agree--don't remove the yellow. Add another border or two in colors you do like so it fades away. Good job.
