    I think I would use the yellow but it's all a matter of your taste. I love it though! Make sure to post pictures when your finished!

    Maybe a smaller teal border, larger yellow/orange border and teal binding! I like your color selections!

    I'd be tempted to do a small border of one of your colors (teal is my favorite, but whatever is yours) and then try to find another fabric --with both colors--for a wider border. It's really nice though.
