    Thanks everyone. Don't know that I have enough of the black dot left so............guess I will hope that the store still has some! A really good excuse to buy some fabric. I need to finish this quilt. LOL

    I think you should go with the light green.

    I like this idea. I was going to suggest repeating the pink but I like the green idea for interest. Then bind it with the black and white polk-a-dot for the grand finish.

    It looks finished to me and very pretty (but the polka dot would work).

    I had to come back and say the reason I suggested the green is because when I look at the quilt I see the pink and black polka dots so I think a green border would tie all the colors together.

    ditto - i think more green will balance out the center colors and i think the black dot binding will wrap it all up. i love it. sorry i'm down to the use of my left hand only...no caps

    Thanks, I am beginning to like the idea of using the light green for the border and the black dot for the binding. Off to audition borders now. Thanks everyone.

    I wouldn't do another border... I'd just use the black pot-a-dot as binding.
