I think maybe a light grey border and a navy binding would do the trick.

That looks like Cozy's tube pattern "Just So Easy"? I did this one and added 2" inner border and 5"outer border and was very pleased. Yours is beautiful...

That's a really pretty quilt. I like borders but can also see it without one.

I totally agree that borders picture frame a quilt. I’m seeing a narrow ( 1/2”) red border then maybe a 2 1/2” of a darker color. Bind it with that same dark border. Good luck n whatever you decide.

If it were mine I would add a small neutral (cream or white) and then a blue border that is maybe 5".

I love your quilt!! I agree it looks like it needs a border. I would probably do a 1 to 1-1/2" small border in the lighter color then a 4" or so outer border in the darkest colors

How big do you want the quilt to be? adding borders in a good way to make the quilt the size you want. I would add a thin dark blue or black border and then a wider blue (maybe only 3") to end quilt. dark binding.

There is a lot of motion going on with your quilt. A border or two would be good.
