    I agree with what KR suggested with the additional fabrics added for borders.

    Great Job!

    I can't tell exactly what color is in the floral but it looks like
    a rust or soft orange color, and I would bring out the darker floral to enclose the quilt. I like it as it is but sometimes we just want to make them a little larger.

    I would make the second border wider than the first if you choose to add a border.

    Again, well done!!!!!!!!

    I think another border with the yellow in it would make it really pop.
