Both are great fabrics, but I think the one on the left, being more subtle and with an overall design, will play a better supporting role for those cute cats. Adorable quilt. Great job!

I think the cats can stand the one on the right. Cute quilt!

I like them both! The one on the left I like because it matches your sashing. I liked it first. Then I looked at the first picture and saw that the one on the right is brighter. I have to say, it's up to you. When I can't decide, I lay it out where you will pass by it a cuople of times and you will be able to see which one is the best choice. It may take a couple of days though.

Neat Quilt!

I agree.

Left one....doesn't draw the eye away from the cats. Right one is too distracting to me.

I love the quilt top and both border fabrics but I do think the one on the left goes better with your cute cats. The right one, draws attention away from the cats. Will be so so cute when completed!
