Congratulations, what a cherished quilt, do you have a picture of your grandmother that you could transfer for the label, that would be cool and unique

I have seen these quilts cut straight across and finished with binding, quilts bound around all the octagons with both tape and without and one with the quilt appliqued to a wide border. No matter how I proceed, doing it by hand is labor intensive. I need guidance as I have limited hand quilting experience. Thanks Susan
