    the floral dose not go with the rest of the quilt. The advantage to having a stash is for future use. You will use it in a future quilt, so save it for now.

    I like the dots as a border or if you have othersolid fabric left over combine into the border with the dots.

    I wouldn't use the floral, if you have any more of the black with pink dot I think that would look nice. As for the back, I think a gray would be nice.

    I would add a narrow border of the grey from your quilt, THEN do a wider border of one of the dots, either pink or black. The grey will separate the black of the quilt blocks from the black of the border do they don't run together.

    Beautiful quilt!

    If you want to make it bigger, maybe a 2" gray border, followed by a black/pink piano key border.
