Have you considered a narrow red flange and then a dark brown outer border to increase the quilt to the size you prefer?

I'm with BeckyL. My first thought was a small one inch border and then a larger border in the dark.

It is beatutiful, just beautiful. Love the colors and how you placed them

Really pretty. Is it for a bed? If it's for a bed I would add a row in both directions, and then add borders.
