    Me too !! It seems to make it pop and ties it all together.

    I noticed all the sunglasses are the same blue fabric. If you have more of that it would pull the whole quilt together. A narrow black w/ the sunglasses fabric IMHO would look really "cool cat"

    BTW, I love the quilt!!!!
    peace

    EDIT: If you don't have that blue then the pink border would be my next choice. It doesn't detract from the cool cats!

    Have you already sewn the green on? If not, I wouldn't use it at all. I like the "I love my cat" border, but I think you need something else to as well. Sorry, not much help, but I do love your quilt. Sew cute!!

    I'm surprising myself and saying the black with dots. I'm not usually a dot person. Second choice, I Love My Cat.

    I would go with I Love My Cat. The quilt is so fun and deserves a special border. Hope you post a picture when you are finished so we can see what you decided on.

    I would put green as the 1st border since it is carring out the sashing, thin 1" "stop border of black and then either the I love cats or the polk-a-dot. If you do the "I love Cats" as the backing then you could bring it around to do the binding. or you could but black as the binding.

    I like the I LOVE MY CATS fabric.......you could always pull out one of the colors in it as a solid to break it from the green border. Good luck deciding.
