I agree with some of the others; a tonal, batik, or solid. You have so much going on in the center, you want that to be the thing you see, a print is too distracting for the borders. I like going with the browns, or mauve/purple.

I did it I finally found my border now some will say wow that is really busy, well yes yes it is. I figure this quilt is busy the border should be too! I have been buying border fabric for weeks now and nothing just seemed to fit until tonight my daughter found the last fabric that made the border and well here it is!!!!

I just cannot get it right I have purchased 8 different fabrics because I thought they were the "one" but only to see NOPE. I found a perfect one but not enought since the fabric is directional. I have 2 last choices coming from another company I love the roses but not enough of that material bummer. I am also thinking it needs a 2" chocolate brown border then the other border it just does not feel done yet. Have I mentioned I even know how I want to quilt it. So it is almost ready!!! Any and all input is welcomed :)
My final choice on borders I am now happy!
