Default Learning the "bargello" technique

I decided a week ago to make a bargello quilt, and made this place mat to learn the technique. I am rather pleased with it and have decided to not use it as a place mat but to put it in my cat's basket here in my sewing room.

My current question is should I just bind it or put a small border on it first. I have some of each of the fabrics left that I could use.

Now, for my "real" bargello quilt, I think I need to make sure none of my fabrics are as close to the same color as my three lightest fabrics are. Would you all agree with that decision?? Fabric selection is not one of my strengths, and I sure want the finished product to be good!

Thanks for your input.
