    I vote blue - the quilt is beautiful!

    Pink and green I like the more solid brown and the pattern seems a little calmer. I actually do not like how the blue pops the blue in the quilt. It becomes more of a focus point but maybe that is good if you are looking for that? Either way it will be beautiful because you did an awesome job on the quilt. Very pretty!

    It would be easier to judge if we could see most of the quilt. With just a small section, it's difficult to judge the over-all effect.

    I think blue but would like to see the whole quilt.

    I would vote for the pink/green, too, to emphasize the flower basket which is the focal point of the quilt. Great job! Be sure to post a photo when you're finished. 8-)

    That is awesome...Log cabin is one of my favorite quilt block, presently doing Starry Nights for my SIL as a thankyou gift. As for borders, if you have any of the pink left, a 3" border, then the floral would be beautiful.

    I like the second one better too, the one with a more complex floral pattern and a touch of blue. It seems to compliment and bring out the colors of your quilt more then the first one. The first one seems to "dull" the quilts center rather then tying it all together.
