While they both look nicely, I prefer the right side with the dots. I love bold and popping complimentary colors. Question however....who is the quilt for? That might determine which border you use.

Definitely the border on the right!! Keep us posted as it progresses!

I think the border on the right makes the quilt pop. I do see the black with stars in the quilt top also, so it does match.

I like the dark brown, it's not so distracting.

What color thread are you using for the embroidery on the pink, brown or black? Also I would make the stop border finished, 1 1/2, not quite as wide as you are showing in the picture. The fabrics are very pretty.

I would like to see the polka-dot fabric next to that dark pink with the small pattern on the top of your quilt. I like the polka dot fabric, but wonder what will happen next to that pink.

I like the brown on the left. With all the work you are going to do in the borders I think the polka dot could lessen the impact of your saying ,the applique and the over all quilt.

Thank you all for you opinions. I am still undecided but Shirley I think you may be right and the dot will take away from the embroidery. The embroidery will be done in a dark black/brown color. Never had such a hard time making a decision as to which fabric to use. Must be the weather...... Hope to get the borders on this weekend and some of the embroidery done then I will post a picture for you all to see which way I decided to go.
