    I like the blue next to the quilt, then the green border, and the blue again for the binding.

    I vote for the green - it just makes everything pop. The red really does nothing for the quilt, which by the way, is very cute.

    The green, the red takes you away from the quilt design.

    I agree with those saying the green polka dot. It pulls it all together with a pop.

    I agree with Tartan. I'd like to see a pic with the blue next to the check, then the green as an outer border.
