I can't pick a color for the binding, I'm leaning towards lime green. I don't have any of the fabric I used left these were all pieces I had that were less than a fat quarter or cut in 2 inch strips

A red might be cool. It could pull out the red of the monkey's hat.

A solid lime would work or the light color.
What color is the backing?

How about a stripe cut on the bias?

Why don't you make a scrap binding of blue, green and red and really catch some attention.
