    I love your quilt. The colors are nice and bright. Good job. White or blue border would look nice.

    Wasn't it fun to make?

    I really like this quilt - it makes me smile. Whatever you choose will be great, but my opinion is border in yellow (the color of the flower centers) followed by either the purple or green. Fantastic quilt - did I mention I really like it!

    I like to end up with a darker color for the final border and binding to "frame" the quilt.

    Love the bright colors, they are so happy. I think a small white border with rectangles of all the colors for the outer border, and white binding.
