    I like the appliqué border because the main body of the quilt reminds me of a garden lattice, where flowers would climb up, so I personally think the appliqué goes very well. Maybe it's also because I so admire people who do appliqué, I personally avoid it whenever possible, but it looks so beautiful!
    All of it looks well done!

    I would absolutely go with the appliqué! It is gorgeous. Im not 100% sure I would do as many blocks in the corners but the appliqué is awesome!

    Oh the applique and leftover bits go great with the top. SO MUCH MORE interesting than the plain border.

    I like them both, I think the appliqué is a nice touch. I prefer the plain blue border, but think it needs to be bigger.
