How about some sashing with red cornerstones, then a thin red border and red binding?

I would like it with sashing in lime green, yellow, red, turquoise ... any color to make the wonderful grey and black blocks pop.

I like as it is, but if you want to add some touch of colour I also vote for aqua or turquoise and maybe a little more white.

I'm all for lime green, as it's fresh and modern. I personally think red with black and white has been overplayed like a good song on the radio.

there is so much you could do with that! it's cute the way it is, but another color would sure make it pop --- depends on the look you are going for...

I thoroughly agree. If you must have another colour, choose one you will like. Personally I like it as is.
Will you keep building on this to make it bigger? Hope so as a bed size will look awesome.

I also like the monochromatic scheme. Personally, I would not add any other color. And I really like the different sizes of blocks.
