I think a scalloped border bound in pink would add the feminine touch you're looking for. Beautiful quilt and I love your color choices. Thanks for sharing.

I think I would bind it so not to distract from the beautiful center.

Have you considered the cathedral window type scalloped binding shown here ...

I think it would be a perfect border for this quilt.

Your quilt is beautiful either way you finish it, but I vote for the scalloped borders.

Oh thats lovely!
Deja vous too, I made a turtle quilt for my 1st Grandson born last December!!
If it was me I would just do the scalloped borders. I think thats feminine to start with

Enjoy your Granddaughter.
