I like it just the way it is! The colors are really well balanced and the quilt is fantastic!

I would leave it and just use red binding. Unless you want to make it bigger, like the others said. :-)

I like it the way it is. The focus is in the center because the colors pop. But a red border/binding would add a punch.

I agree with the others!
I think the red border would add a punch if you need it bigger but if not the red binding would be great too!
Just my opinion!

I also vote to leave the quilt as is and bind in red.

Since you asked...a red border would really make a statement. I like to use what ever fabric is on the back for the border. Love the quilt as it is too!
