I like the dark, and it has a lighter Lavender in it, that helps to tie it all together!!

I like a darker border too but not the one you have in the photo. It is just too busy of a print. I would have preferred the darkest tonal in your quilt for the border.

I'm with you on this one. I really prefer the lighter one for the same reasons, or would go with a darker one if it was one of the same darker pieces used. Either way, it's Very pretty.

I like the dark print. I think it really brings out the great colors you have in the quilt. Very pretty.

It's a beautiful quilt. I liked the lighter fabric better of the two choices. If the majority says the darker is better, I would look for another fabric. I don't feel like it is the best match.

I would go with the darker fabric but in a different print for the same reasons as others have given. You don't want to take anything away from your beautiful quilt.
