Very pretty quilt!
I like it best with the border but see the little gap between the border & the quilt on the right side (where the wall shows through)? Just at first glance I thought you had a strip of fabric there. I think it would be pretty with a very narrow border (say about a 3/4") & then the final border & then the binding. I think I would make the binding and the very narrow border the same fabric.

I like the border. I also saw the floor showing through and though it was a narrow strip to set off the blocks before adding the border. That would look good too. Sweet baby quilt. Go for what makes you feel good. I find that my first instincts are usually the best ones.

I almost always put at least one border on my quilts. I just think it frames the quilt nicely and shows off the center better, gives it a finished look.
Your quilt, you can do as you please.
Beautiful quilt and colors.
