    I love your design! I'd go for a blue border and red binding.

    I would put a red border on it, I think. Very pretty.

    I would go for the border - a border just seems to frame a quilt and bring it altogether for me.

    Border. Medium/narrow of red and then either the blue or the white in a medium width. But then it is, your quilt and you and do as you wish. Enjoy and I do understand that a little input from others always makes you own ideas solidify.

    If it were mine and not knowing what the back fabric is like, I think an all white border about 3" (finished) wide, then a very small red one (about 1" finished) finishing with the blue. IMHO
