Your quilt is beautiful!
To finish it I like this pieced strip option, or a light tan narrow followed by wide dark blue border and binding, or if neither of those is possible, stick with the wide dark blue, #3, as border and binding.

I would go for the silvery blue with the 3rd blue as the second border. Very nice work!!! :thumbup:

I'm not too sure about adding a second dark blue border since I have a narrow border to match the sashing. Maybe it would look like an afterthought
You all have such wonderful idea, thanks for you help.
love the third one;)
