I'm thinking the pink/green would bring out the center of the quilt best. It's a little hard to judge because your pictures of the border fabric options don't include the center of the quilt so it's difficult to get the overall effect of your options. It would be easier not to have to piece the borders, but I'd pick whichever option will look the best.
Please post pictures of your progress. It's going to be a real pretty quilt!

There's 1 yard of the pink/blue, I will have to peice the borders. I think it stands out to much. I have enough of the pink/green, that I won't have to peice the borders, and I can use it to do the binding.
What would you use.

Much better pictures!! Although I like the pink and blue fabric by itself a lot, I think the pink and green goes best with the rest of the quilt. Looking forward to pictures of its progress!

The pink/green has won out. It will be easier to use anyway. It will be the last border and the binding. It will be a day or so before I get back to it. thanks for all the help. I'll post a new pic when I get it finished. Barbara
