    Love it! I would use the border on the left - the blocks with the black in between. You did a great job.

    you could add 2 borders make the first border not as wide as the second. I would would use you bright blue for outside border and a med blue or green for inside border and then bind it in black It is a very pretty Quilt !!
    but dont forget to also one of borders you R trying I like the first one With the positive squares and the negative is it a strip or rectangle. good luck

    Wonderful use of color, I like the alternating squares border you have laid out. Hope to see it when it finished.

    Lovely quilt.
    Colors are wonderful. Think I would check to see how a quarter inch color around the quilt, then use the black for a wide border and use a color to bind.
