I think once the quilt has the borders finished a lot of the flaws that you see now will dissappear. It is beautiful and I love the colors in it.

That quilt is truly lovely. Finish it with a dark green border and be proud.

Agreed. A dark green to match would make a perfect frame. Since you'll have to purchase fabric for the border, go ahead and get enough of the same fabric for the binding. Lovely quilt....deserves to be finished.

Very pretty, I think all quilts need at least one border, to frame it, just me.

I think it is very pretty--definitely worth finishing by adding borders--either a dark green to match, or a fabric that would tie all of your colors together. I really love the colors you chose--very spring-y!

It is very pretty! Your colors are great, you have so many border choices. You may even decide a couple borders a 2 1/2 inch then maybe a 4 inch, you will know what feels right, but I do agree, you must finish it!!
