    As for the border, I would repeat the triangles there.

    I would leave the white thread in the bobbin, unless you want the pink out line on the back.
    this is a beautiful pattern.

    I agree with using the two color thread if possible.

    I'd use the pink in the tulips and the white on the white. Will keep it elegant looking.

    I always use the same color thread in the bobbin. I think the pink will look good on the back.
