I think Vincent is going to be a very happy little boy. Red binding would set off the quilt nicely and since it's one of his favorite colors, that's a bonus.

It will be a treasure his whole life, I see him handing it on to his son.

my 50 yo bro still has his landscape of the 100 acre wood with pooh & piglet in the corner that g-ma painted, yes, hung in his home office. (An artisan style painter, not a primitive, folks paid $100s for hers, back in the 70's)

I agree with everyone else. It's perfect of a 4 yr old boy. Red binding will make it even more perfect!

Yes, it did look a bit out of place. The backing is that same fabric. And, I do have lots of fabric left that I could make random blocks and scatter all around the back ... making the quilt reversible.

You could just make a few pinwheels for the back -- keep it simple. I vote with the majority to bind in red.
