    Both would work nicely. The first will make a bold frame and the second willl be a bit softer (the pic look slike it had an orange in it, too, like the quilt).

    Personal opinion, I could be wrong.
    I agree with your idea. The second one blends better, colorwise. IMHO

    I like the second one best, because it blends in with the rest of the quilt.

    I think the 2nd ones blends together with the other colors in the fabric.
