    I like the narrow border, if you need it bigger use one of the other colors to make a second border. It is a beautiful quilt, love the colors.

    I like the bigger border. It seems to give it a better finish.

    I like the corner blocks, but the smaller border. Perhaps the blocks can be smaller with fewer strips?

    I like the look of the smaller border but I think for me I would do a light color 3 inch and the the darker 3 inch. This still gives the same look with a bigger size

    Nice quilt. The larger border appeals but the corner blocks not so much. I would probably cut the 6" border in half and add a strip of the medium tan between the two to frame the quilt.
