    Definitely the black border. The Polka dot border is just too many dots!!!! You lose the pattern with all those dots. :-o

    I like the lighter colour for a small inner border. I think it will make the centre stand out more but just my opinion. Look forward to seeing what you do.

    The black border pulls the black out in the quilt.

    I like the black. It frames the quilt nicely.
