    I'd go with a thin red border, followed by a larger grey one. Or vice-versa!

    Love your quilt and the idea of the gray and red. And your pillows are fabulous!

    I am doing a Fairy Frost one very similar and am echo quilting the circles right now. Please post a pic when u get it finished. I will try to put up a pic of mine. Yours looks great!!!

    You could always do what I do .. I pin up the colors next to the quilt and come back the next day for a fresh look .. But I am sure whatever color you choose will offset it beautifully ! Good luck
