I like it just the way it is. I think the piano border would detract from the quilt pattern.

I agree; the piano key border would be too much. I love the simplicity of the black border; it really sets off your fantastic quilt!

I agree!! a solid larger border would make it look framed that would not distract from the center

Now add a final border of white to bring it all together. It's beautiful either way .

Great shadow quilt and I think that you made a wise decision to not put a PK border.
