    The snake print overpowers the blocks in the quilt and takes away from the overall beauty of the quilt. I vote for the giraffe. Nice quilt by the way.

    I like the gold border but put a small border of black maybe a faux border before the gold and snake binding.

    I would opt for the snake too but the idea of a thin black band and then the giraffe sounds good too. Would love to see it when it's finished. I so love animal prints.

    I really like the contrast that the snakeskin provides.

    I vote for #1. I do like both though, but number 1 wins with me. good luck with the one you choose.

    I like the first border best...my rule always is when in doubt, go darker.
