I think it will be fine. If the binding is the same color as the background, it will give it just a bit more room. It's great the way it is.

Love the design. Pretty quilt. Maybe just softer curves at the corners would make you happier

Would you consider turning the corner hearts around so they point outward? That seems a little easier on the eyes to me.

I have taken suggestion from one of you about the leaves in the corners, I have changed it and I like it much better this way.
Since I want it to be a bed size quilt, I am thinking about third flower border, possibly poppies ?? so, I am far from it being finished.........
for now this is how it will look.
thanks for looking

It looks great to me, but if you are not satisfied it should be fairly quick and easy to simply move the heart a little more toward the center, it is lovely.
