Exactly my thought.

Sometimes with batiks you can get away with close but not exact matches. Particularly if you have some of the original fabrics in there too. I could send you some scraps if you tell me what size piano keys you want to do and give me an idea of the colors you prefer.

Is your quilt from a pattern? |
I'm seeing the green dot that you used in the lighthouse in the second row as a border. I think that would look great as a border or binding.

It really doesn't need a border but if you want one I would put a small one of orange to make the colors pop.

What a COOL Quilt!! I love theose funky lighthouses! I am of the outer borders are better school, so I say border it!I just think it looks more finished.
|
Unless you desire it to be larger I would leave it alone. I think it was designed to be a simple binding, so it didn't detract from the whimsical lighthouses.
|
I like the piano key border with a blue outer border- it is really cute!!
|
If it's the size you want it, I'd go with it the way it is. Looks great.

wow, that's a great quilt :thumbup:
