I think the green one is very pretty.

I like the green polka dot. The blue you have as binding? or maybe a 2nd skinny border I would do in a navy. The blue you have does not seem dark enough. Love the quilt!

I agree with using the green, because it is in the quilt and it doesn't take away from the design, just blends in well. My eyes seem to go immediately to the red, and not the quilt design, and there isn't any red in the quilt, I think the red really distracts.

Read all the comments^. When I looked again the red does make it look brighter.. the green makes it more passive looking.. there is red in the quilt also.. so Me thinks it depends on which one you like..
Notice that the tile under the quilt in the picture is darker so that might be why the top one is brighter
Very NICE work!

I am going with green. The red does make everything look brigjhter but I think that could be the lighting not the red.

I would chose the lavender( or what ever color that really is) as the border and then bind it in the green polka dot. the green seems too much as a border!
