    Beautiful! I love the strip twist. I think a border or two would be a nice addition.

    I would lay different fabrics beside it and see which I liked.

    Yes I would put a border on your beautiful quilt. The green will frame it like a picture.

    I prefer borders. It's like framing a picture, gives it a finished look!

    Beautiful quilt! Yes, it need borders, maybe two. I would do a Stonehenge then maybe a solid? Very nice.

    Unless you need it to be larger I would not. It looks like a work of art love your colors and the placement. Great job!!
