Think of the border and binding as matting and frame, then start looking at pictures. You will see that they are "framing" the picture and are accents to punctuate the picture. Same thing for a quilt. You want the border and binding to be the "frame" to bring attention to your quilt. Backing doesn't have to "match" either. Remember there are no rules here, this is your artwork and you can do as you please.
