    I think they are cute just the way they are.

    You could put different backings on them and bind them with different colors so they would know which one was whose.

    Perhaps do another border, each quilt a different color. They will be able to tell the quilts apart at a quick glance~

    Unless you want them larger they are great just the way they are.

    How cute!! I agree to make them just different enough so each niece knows which is hers.
    I did that with my 2 boys who shared a room b/c it would have been a war if I didn't :D

    I add a 2 inch yellow border to pull out the yellow in the quilt and a 3 inch green or Blue and then bind it in a red....Ladybug

    I agree that making them a bit different would be nice. If you are going to do two more borders, maybe you could flip flop them colors on the quilts.

    Pink would make a great border.
