    I like the second one with less pattern in the fabric. It doesn't detract from the dresdens and applique and frames both nicely.

    I'm with Central Ohio Quilter on that one, but do agree that both would work. Beautiful quilt.

    It's very pretty. Another border isn't necessary, but of your choices, I'd do green. Green would add a bit more color to the quilt.

    I agree with T-Bones Mom. If the size is correct, I'd just bind it with the floral.

    I really like the first border but it would be beautiful without another border too!

    It's a beautiful quilt! Right away, I like it without a border, then when looking at your choices...whew,that's hard
    ....both look great but I might lean more toward the second
    choice.

    I like the first one, the brown floral.

    Both would work, but I like the first.
