I too would go with a black border, you can audition width, wide, narrow or in between.

Beautiful, love the fabrics you chose. If the braids not matching bothers you, you could put a narrow, 1.5 to 2" sashing to make that less obvious and if you used a black sashing it would really let your braids shine. That's just my opinion, but I am partial to batiks and black. You could use a black border, but maybe you should sit back and "punt" (my term for letting things settle, think about them, then make a decision) for a couple days, then decide. It is a beautiful quilt.

Gorgeous quilt! Love the colors of the batiks you chose.

I so agree. Let your quilt tell you what it wants.
My quilts talk to me all the time.

Gorgeous quilt! I love all of those Batiks! I think a black border would be a good choice too. I really like black with beautiful vibrant colors.
