Default Borders Needed?

I just finished (or thought I had finished) this top. I now see there is a mistake so I'll have to take that apart and fix the mistake.
I'm now waffling on whether or not it needs a border. I don't think I have ever done a quilt with no border before.

The size is OK, as it is just to hang over the bannister of our upstairs staircase, but the original plan was a 1" border of the background grey grunge fabric, then a thin border of the strings like is in each block (1 1/2"), then a wider border of the grunge, maybe 2", then another thin border of the strings and another thin border of the grey before binding. So, that would make about a 7" border, total.

Thoughts? Other ideas? No border needed?
