leave it the way it is, and when you are done quilting it, bind it in black!

I hardly ever put a border on a quilt anymore. Look great without it!!!

It looks great the way it is and only add borders if you need it bigger.

I wouldn't add a border if it were me... It looks wonderful just the way it is.

It looks great as it is! That said, if you need it bigger I'd audition colors from the blocks and then bind it in black.

Count me as one who doesn't like borders. Most borders are added to make the quilt bigger and it shows. Unless it adds to the design a border is just an add on.
