Personally, I'd add another border. The quilt is absolutely darling!

If you need another border for size, I would use purple. Cute quilt!

If you want just a little something to frame it up, try making the binding a bit darker than the border that you have. I have done that a few times and it always makes a difference.

Need to bring 2 of the brighter colors to the outside edges like the Pink and then bind with Green even the lighter Green would look OK... its really nice...

This is an adorable quilt! Love the applique. It needs a frame/another border. The dark pink would be cute.

My granddaughter would love that quilt. A darker pink would be very nice as an outter boarder. But after studying for awhile what about blue, green or red? Yellow Would be to soft. Just mho. You can not go wrong with whatever you want to do
