Need help with border fabric

I finished piecing the top with all my floral fabric and I don't have a clue what to use for a border. Looked at a couple LQS's but didn't see anything that I liked. Suggestions please. I took the picture of quilt on my bed, I have the quilt that's on there tucked into the side rail so it all looks a little strange.

It looks like purple is your signature color and I'd just make the border out of another purple fabric. Either have it be a solid and do some near quilting in it or a print in the purple shades. It's a lovely quilt.

I too like the idea of piano keys, but I would match as many colors in the quilt. It wouldn't have to be the same pattern as in the quilt, but contrasting colors that is in the florals with black in between each color & then another black border. By the way, your quilt is beautiful.
