I can't tell if your dark is black or not but I'd use that to frame it out and the maybe a small border of one of the brighter colors and bind it in the black. It's looking good.

That's a neat quilt! I like the tan sashing. It gives the quilt the right amount of spark.

After looking again at your quilt, I think a black border directly on your quilt center would take the shadow away from the outer blocks, I'd do a bright 2" border then do the black. I think black borders really frame a quilt out that already has black in it. Just my humble opinion, and what do I know!!
