I agree. A piano border would be just perfect for this beautiful quilt.

I think the black and white squares would be perfect! Would make the black squares in the centers really POP!

I would do which ever is your favorite color and then bind it in black. I think it has so much going on it doesn't need anymore in the border. It's colorful any really cute. I like it.

I love the quilt. I'm partial to bright colors. when I can't find a border I like, a plain black border seems to frame the quilt and looks good. But not too wide, depending on the size of the quilt I like a 4-5 inch border in black.
