    Its a beautiful quilt. I think a solid balck border would give it a nice finished look.

    I think a black border around the whole quilt would look nice too.

    I agree a sold black border would make it "pop".

    Another solid black border around the whole quilt then use leftover pieces of colored fabrics to make your binding!
    Very pretty quilt!
