    First thought that came to mind was dark brown for the border. Lovely quilt and love the fabric choices. A dark brown border would look good with the quilt. It is absolutely stunning!

    I think the quilt is beautiful, but I would probably go with one of the darker colors for the border, brown or dark green.

    I love maple leaves so really think this is beautiful. I would use the dark brown for a border.

    I would put a narrow border of either the red or green and then a wider border of the brown.
