    If this were mine to finish I would use the thin green first, the gold and finally the red... then bind it with something rather bold

You have some deeper, richer golds in your quilt and I bet if you chose a richer gold it would be stunning! JMHO of course.
    Beautiful quilt! I think any way you do it will be nice, but I prefer it either without the gold, or as Cogita said, a bolder gold.

    I agree with Tartan...the red with green gives the quilt a pop, but the red/cream/green is beautiful too. Very nice job.

    I like the red/gold/green too, your quilt is not only beautiful but nicely pieced. Good job!
