I vote with the "border" group. I think it would help highlight and showcase your wonderful compass design. Awesome work.

Your quilt is beautiful. I love borders on quilts. I think they give any quilt the finishing touch.

Just beautiful... The quilt says to me that it wants a frame, aka border.

My vote is to put on a border. Pretty quilt top!

It needs a border to bring your eye to the outside. Darker fabric is my thought :thumbup:

Beautiful job and I'm all for borders to help accentuate all the work you've done.

I agree. I like the border idea. The fabric that you have around the block in the middle is dark and I think it would look great if you still had some of that. jmo :)

I'd add one of the dark colors as a border. Maybe two. Beautiful quilt!!
