Default Fireworks fabric quilt, part 3

A few days ago, I posted pictures of fireworks fabric and asked for suggestions. I got good ones. Then I asked if borders would make it look a bit less wild. I got good answers.

And, now my question is, red or black binding? I had planned on black all along, but now I am thinking red....

(Oh, this is a Warm Wishes pattern. It is for charity, but I do want it to look the best it can. )

So, red or black binding? What do you think? And thanks for thinking with me.

Dina

I think red binding would really pop

Either would look good. If it is for a younger person I would go with red. Color always wins with kids

Not to complicate matters but I'd give consideration to a flange binding, black with the flange in red. Great looking quilt, Dina.

Red would be a zinger! Go for it!

geevee has a great suggestion, a black binding with a red flange would be a great finish! Black binding on the black border would complete the framed look, red would add one last zing- so it depends on the look you are going for- any of them will be great, your quilt is awesome!

I'd go Red for binding. That will make it really pop. Beautiful Quilt.
