Default Help needed on border

I have designed a wallhanging for my DB for a specific quilting design. I am stumped on the border. I layed out three different designs and like all three but can do only one. I know I can count on my QB friends for some advice. Should it be #1, #2 or #3?

I like all 3 but if I were going to do #2 I would miter the corners. Beautiful quilt.

I like # 1 ok, # 2 would be nice if you mitered the corners- #3 kind of gives it a lopsided look with the opposing star corners.

I like #1 best. The other two need mitered corners to look right. Maybe you planned that and we're just too literal.
Very nice design.

I like #1 the best. I have to agree the others would look nicer with mitered corners."

I agree. Miter borders would look best of all.
