Need border help. Three pic's of my landscape quilt below. Finally got the palm fronds put together and pinned to the top. Last night while laying in bed I thought I would extend some of the palm frond tips onto the border, so I'll need to attach the border before I sew the fronds down.

But which border?

I've got several more batiks to try, blues, purples, yellows - not a whole lot of reds.

What do you guys think? Any of these or should I keep digging the stash?

Same material as the "bark" in the Palm trees

I like #1 and #3.

#1 because it frames the tree.

#3 because it looks like the sunset on the beach.

I like number 1 - I think it sets the palms off nicely.
P.S. Really pretty quilt. P.S.S. Why do we always think of these things while we're supposed to be sleeping? LOL
