Not sure what you are really asking. When you said it was bench size, my first reaction was, put threads in the center of all the 9 patches, then take it to church and use it as a prayer quilt. Our church does this - when we have someone that is ill or needs prayers we put it in the narthex for people to tie them and sign a prayer list. Then the quilt is given to the person. The quilts aren't very big, I think about 30 x 36.

I kind of got into the same groove a while back. Some 500+ squares later... edited to add that mine was made from the pattern for the so easy schlep bag. I love it and it definitely is a conversation piece. But you could definitely do something similar without ripping or removing any of your squares. Lots and lots of bag patterns out there.

It is beautiful! What comes to my mind is a quilt that I saw in a Bed and Breakfast while travelling some 8 years ago and that I still find very pretty. So, yes to a white border with applique and a couple of narrower borders etc...
