I think a narrow white border and then a wider solid black one.

I think I would like it bound in one of the charcoals.

I also would keep it to the whites, grays, and charcoals.

**I agree here.

I think the quilt is just stunning! If you are satisfied having a small quilt I's stop now. If you want a bigger quilt say for the bed I'd buy more of the same fabric. I would not mix the browns and creams. I'd do a small red binding but that's all. I would not want to distract from the optical illusion factor of the quilt. It's a beauty! Have you looked at your pictures? They are amazing!

I definitely like the top best, it seems to pop more than the others. I think it makes a nice wall hanging as it is, either with a solid black or dark grey binding (no border) or with a multi-color pieced binding like Bree123 has suggested. Stunning.

How lovely! I especially love the first two settings. I don't see the rest of those colors fitting in. I would either border it as is for a wallhanging, or buy matching yardage to continue as started to make a quilt. The other colors could be made in that pattern and look great as it's own separate piece.
