    Flower border definitely, then green binding. The floral border lifts the flower blocks up.

    It looks gorgeous. :-)

    I think it needs a strong border so I'd go with the floral print.

    Great job. It looks so much like spring. I would put a tiny sashing of the green next to the pink border, then the large floral print, then bind it with the green.

    Then floral it is! That's the one I was leaning toward but sometimes we get lost in the fabric forest and need to get another opinion!! If I decide to add a second border/sashing in green, how wide would you make it--1 inch or less?

    It's very pretty! I think a thin green border, then the floral for the wide border and maybe the green again for binding. What ever you do though, it will be beautiful! :)

    Rose, I am glad you decided to go with the floral--it was my favorite too. I would bind it in the green like was suggested by others.
