    Another vote for the second purple for binding. Stunning quilt! She is going to put you in the front of her class.

    ​Any of them would look nice but I like my binding to coordinate with my backing also. I would choose the one that looks best with the front and back.

    What a beautiful quilt!!!! I also vote for the second from the left, but the beauty of your quilt is overwhelming. (I am also delighted to note that I have all 4 purple fabrics you are auditioning. Neat. I am not the only one with purple in the stash!)

    I like #2 and #3. #4 has to mcu red and #1 dull in comparison. If I had to choose only one it would be #2 to give the most contrast against the white.

    First off, gorgeous projects and good for you for show and tell!

    I think the dark makes the most satisfying ending, but I like either of the middle ones.

    Is nice (but maddening) when we have multiple good options!

    As for me, I have a number of bindings to make on the to-do list, I pretty much always make French double fold bias tube bindings. Two have had their lines drawn and are ready to be turned into a tube and then cut. The third is prewashed but no further. I always like to put the completed tops into the "ready for quilting" box with their backing and bindings made. I wrap the binding around pieces of cardboard that are 12-18" long, let's me easily count the yardage that way too!. That third one is for a top that's been done for a few years and I was surprised that it didn't have a binding with it so while not done I am close.

    2nd from the left also. Like the binding to frame the quilt and provide a place for the eye to rest.
