Depends if you like the size or not. If the size is O.K. then add a red binding and call it finished. :thumbup:
If you want a larger quilt add a red border to finish it.
A really cute quilt, great whichever way you decide to go.

I like it the way it is, but before you add a boarder, lay some material along the edge, of red, green and white, and you will get an idea of how it will look. Also if you want or need the quilt to be bigger.

I think I small black border and then red binding would make it look just great.

I would just bind it in red unless you want it a little larger. Then add a red border.

It is your quilt so do what you like.

I say put a border on it, bcause the pattern pulls your eye off the quilt,the same way a picture has to be framed sometimes not to pull your eye out of the picture. Hope that makes sense. It is a beautiful snowman quilt.

I'd put at least a red binding. Seems like it needs to 'contained' a bit. It's very cute!

I like the idea from the others and add asmall red border and then bind it off with green. But it is your quilt and there are many options in quilting. Remember you have to like it! :o)

Like the others said; maybe a narrow Red Border, but I like it the way it is. Very clever and pretty.

I like it the way it is. But audition a red border. Lay a strip of the fabric under the edge of your quilt at different widths, and then you can see if the red border would be something that would make it look more finished, or if you still like it as is. Remember you are the "queen of your quilt".
