What type of border would you put on this (it is an Omigosh quilt)?

This would be my choice. It frames that beautiful quilt center without over-powering it.

I would go with a 1.5 inch border in red or multicolor, then a white 3 or more inch outside border. This is gorgeous!. Your work is grand! Piano key border is very busy and I don't think you will like it.

From QuiltE, "extend your Irish chain blocks into the border to complete the diamond of the chain. Then the rest of the border would be just the plain white background......" I agree, continue the diagnal line of little square and make the rest of the border white.

That is a beautiful quilt, I think that I would go with a small white border and if you want a little extra I think that I would do the second border with tiny colored blocks(same size and colors as in the quilt) alternating with the white, and then finish with another small white third border.
