    I go with Rodney on the white. A blue binding would work on it too.

    Thank you everyone for all the suggestions! I'm going to lay out the different fabrics in a couple of the ways suggested and see how it looks!

    I like the blue as it has alot of the colours already in your squares, if you have enough white how about a very narrow white border first?

    I vote for the narrow green and wide blue too, that will be gorgeous.

    I would use a solid darker border to make the center pop.

    Narrow green with wider blue would look nice.
