I would make another row of blocks and then add borders whatever width needed to make it as wide as I wanted.
The quilt is beautiful and I hopw he appreciates it enough to take care of it. Make a label with care instructions, as how to wash and dry.

Well, here it is, with borders
I read all your ideas and appreciate the suggestions. Had really planned on a piano key border (among others) and realized it would be silly to put tons more time into this quilt that is likely to be abused LOL.
Sooooo I added five borders, using the black (actually it's a charcoal blender), white, and the cranberry.
Thanks again for your help!
