    I'm with the green as it's a bit more soothing and on a bed, more conducive to sleep. However, for a wall hanging, I'd use the orange. Both look fine....for me, it depends on the ultimate function of the quilt....

    I agree with Omacookie...I like the green...I guess I like everything in harmony. I can see the Circles better with this one.

    Here is what I do when in doubt (besides ask on here) I take a picture of each, print it out on regular paper and then look at them and go with the one that seems good.

    The orange makes all of the fabrics seem brighter.

    I like the green as it gives the eye a chance to rest before going into the outer border and I think it evens everything out. The orange seems to loud somehow. Great quilt.

    I know this is not what you asked, but I would like to see the print as the second border and the orange as the outside, and then I think the orange would be the frame. But that is just me.
