    I like the second and last ones. For me it would depend on what size I needed the quilt to be. I think the gold ties the blocks an border together more.

    I like the last one best. The thin gold strip seems to bring out the colors in the floral piece. BTW they are all pretty and will be ok whichever you choose.

    I kept going back and forth as I'm sure you are doing! I really like the 3rd one but maybe have the 1st blue not as wide. I didn't like the gold in the 2nd pictures but I did like it in the 4th picture...so that is my 2nd choice! Very pretty quilt.

    I prefer the 1st one, the gold doesn't seem to "relate" to the rest of the fabrics. IMHO

    the last pic is so inclusive of all the colors in the floral border that it blends the whole thing together. they are all lovely, just like the flow of the last pic. I think it is the way it makes the gold stand out in the floral print, otherwise it kind of fades. Good Luck
