A small blue border between your pieced blocks and lg scale outer border would set it off beautifully, I think

I thought about that . . . in the middle of the night . . . :)

I agree with nonnie60. Just the posie fabric. Very pretty quilt.

Thanks for the opinions. I would have gone with just the main fabric, but I didn't want that wide a border (to make it big enough for the bed). So I've gone with the first picture but adding another narrow blue border, so it will go main fabric; narrow blue; posey. I'll have pillow shams made with the main fabric as well.

I like the first picture, but I also like Nonnie60's idea and forget more posies and put in a green border after the original fabric.

First of all, I love your quilt. You had such a good idea to use the four patch posey blocks within the quilt. As far as the borders, I would either use the green as another inner border and then use just the main fabric, or I would use your method number 2. In my humble opinion, I think that if you use method 1, it pulls your eye away from the center of the quilt and you lose your focus a little bit.
