top is 60 by 60.do I add borders to make it a bed size or just leave it as is.this is my hard part-can not decide.it would have to have wider borders to top and bottom to make it a queen.also I do not want to do any more curved blocks for a while

Borders I would do narrow darker one then a wider one that is in your basic color tone.

The top is lovely.

I'm partial to nice wide dark borders that really frame the whole design. In this case, you've got enough going on with the DP blocks. Doesn't have to be tone-on-tone, perhaps a great LARGE scale pattern (floral?) if you can find it.

The picture isn't sharp enough for me to recommend a specific color/fabric.

I would add a darker border will make the quilt stand out. Great job.
