Yep - needs a border to frame your compasses. Two - inner thinner border in that medium golden brown, and the wider outer border in the darker brown or darker green. Do like the colors you chose for this quilt.

I vote 'YES'. This will truly be awesome when done, can't wait to see it finished.

I like borders, I think that everything looks better with one.
It's like framing your work.

Your quilt top is beautiful already. I would add a light then a dark border to frame your treasure.

Fold the fabric to the size of the border you were considering and put it next to the quilt top. Then step back and decide. The quilt top is wonderful.
