Great job on your first quilt it looks wonderful!!! I would probably bind in the black because the binding gets the most wear and tear and gets the dirtiest. I would love the look of the contrast of the pink but would go black for that reason. I usually go a little darker for my bindings.

first quilt?
Hello everyone! I am very new to all of this, this is my first quilt. I have just finished the top and now am trying to decide whether I should machine or hand quilt (leaning more towards machine). I am going to stitch in the ditch because I don't want to take from the pattern of the quilt but I'm not sure how to quilt the borders, should I do something different? I also wanted to get opionions on what color I should do the binding in pink or the black border. I would love some other opinions.
