I like the idea of the grey or the pop of color - a hot pink or bright turquoise would get my vote. Beautiful quilt!

I thought the border was brown {chocolate} but on my computer now it looks grey. Try auditioning a few fabrics...the right one will pop out at you. <br /><br />It is gorgeous Clare! I love the simplicity of it....really stunning. How big is it?
