depending how much larger you want to make it, border or binding needs to be black, if I put an actual border on it though I would bind with red

Unless you need it to be bigger I would just quilt it and bind it in black.

I would use the black border. It's a beautiful quilt and the black border would frame it nicely. I'd say 2"-3"would be good.

I would not add another border; bind in solid black.

I love it! You did a great job! I like the colors! I would also finish with a black border and then bind red off!
Thanks for sharing! A big hug!

Nice quilt! I would use black as a border and your fabric you suggested for the binding. Can't wait to see it done!

Black border and black binding would be my choice. Lotsa drama already. And congrats on a gorgeous quilt!
