    I've laid it out with different options but can't decide how it would look best. Any suggestions?

    I vote for the red only, it goes with your little red ones. Too much going on with the other borders.

    I vote the red too, but I just love the crows & cherries fabric. That is too cute!

    DITTOES! With the red border, my eyes started focusing on the blocks right away. The quilt looks completed with the red, with the others, I keep thinking ... what's next?
    as in - - you would need another border! (in my humble opinion) <wave>
