This was my thought exactly!

I think a bright plain border would make it pop!

Choose the color you want to highlight in the quilt. Put a turquoise border and the turquoise will pop, or pink, red brown etc.

There are lots of great ideas here! I took 2 charm square packs and used a DS9 patch pattern as the inspiration. I'm leaning towards a narrow brown border and then probably a wider pink border (or teal). I'll have to see what looks good at the LQS sales tomorrow!

Thank you everyone!
