Love the brown! It really sets off the quilt.

Well, now we have totally confused you, I think a 1" blue border and then the print, binding it in orange. Now, sleep well tonight, and tomorrow with a clear head, maybe you can make your decision. By the way, what is the back?

I am liking the idea of using the blue myself.

I also suggest adding a small bit of blue and then adding on an orange or brown border. Either way, the baby is going to enjoy snuggling in their quilt. Great job on the quilt.

I agree with dungeon quilter. Switch the brown with the orange and I'd add blue squares in the corners.
Love the orange!!!!

I would go with a small border of blue then orange. I think the small blue border would finish it off better then have a nice orange border.

I think I would use a narrow blue border and then a slightly wider orange border and bind with the print.Since it is for a baby, I don't think I would add any more brown. That would leave the brown as an accent color.
