To add border or not to add border - that is the question. Thanks!

When I first selected the material for the border, I was going to use plain sashing, or no sashing. I agree that now the border looks too 'busy' with the busy sashing.
I do not want to buy more fabric and I only have one matching brown fat quarter left. I will bind it in the busy fabric, but from what has been suggested, I thought maybe a pink piping just inside the binding will help break up the white. I have lots of pink. Hub likes pink!
I will use the busy border fabric for the backing.
Thanks all for weighing in! Much appreciated.

Very pretty and your points match perfectly. I would skip the border. I think the fabric is too busy. I would be great for the backing though. If you need a border to make it bigger, I would go with the dark fabric.
