Okay here is my take on this wonderful quilt. This quilt 'forced' me to close an eye. Once I saw the vision you were after, with the one eye shut of course, I am thinking, "you are quite the crafty quilter". Not only because the quilt of many colors is beautiful, but because you are sneaky as well. Why, you ask? Because the first thing I see is the blue just 'POP!' within the quilt. Because someone very cleverly placed a human being dressed in all-blue on the left hand side to help us choose which color to place as the border. Sneaky sneaky!

I like it just fine, but I think I would border just to bring all of those colors together. Maybe blue or red or .... well I don't know. I just like to frame these wonderful scrappy quilts with a single color.

Love your quilt. I would opt for no border. The quilt stands alone and says it all!
peace

I think a blue border, a darker blue like Navy, would frame it nicely.

I really like it the way it is, but if I wanted to use it on my queen size bed I would put borders on it.

I go with no border, it doesn't need it. Beautiful!

I think a border would frame it up nicely. There is a lot of color there, and it would give the eyes a place to rest.
