I agree, sometimes less is more.

Lately I have incorporated grey in my quilts and it goes well so for a quilt like yours I would put a grey narrow border then followed with a piano border of all the other colors

That is what I immediately thought. The white will give space between the other colors.

If not, it's a quilt, that to me, would look great finished without a border, and simply bound.

If you want the quilt larger, I would skip the border, and just add more of the same mix of blocks.
Then bind as above.

Good Luck!
I agree. I'd like it just bound in black. No borders
