I don't like borders but agree that one would pull
It together

Beautiful. I think a border would set it off nicely.

I border everything... it ties everything together.

I find it hard to not put borders on quilts, but sometimes they don't want them. In this case, though, I think the beautiful mariner's compass blocks are visually weighty and a border would balance them nicely.

Beautiful quilt but I agree it needs a border.

Wow, your quilt is amazing! I think I would add a border to tie it all together.
