it's very pretty. the main part of the quilt has green bits. the green border has pink bits. everything blends nicely. when they see the quilt, they'll see how pretty it is and they'll love you for making it for them.

I think it looks good, you have the pinks and greens in the panel, so to me the borders pull it together.

I love it just as it is. Pinks and greens are great matches.

Love the border, I agree with the others, somehow add some pink into the border may help with the visual, but I think it looks great as is.

I like the border with the pink flower if it is closest border
I know its too late ;-)
if you can add some corner stoses from the dark pink will blend well too

This is going to be a Christmas gift for my in-laws, so I want to make sure it looks okay... the binding will be the same as inner border and the backing the same as outer border. Please let me know what you think.

Thanks in advance!!!

Your quilt is lovely as it is. Do you have any of the WHITE / green fabric left? If sew............ I would use it to bind the quilt as it would draw the whole quilt together and not over power it.
