I'm nowhere near the quilter you are and wouldn't even attempt that one. But IMHO all three of them distract from the beauty of the quilt. I think I'd opt for a solid black border with maybe cornerstones with some of the pink and yellow

I think a plain inner border and a floral outer border would frame it better. If you really want a pieced border, I think the 3rd is best, hopefully using florals for the pink and yellow spots.
