Beautiful quilt, I'd bind in green.

I love your quilt. I'd like to downsize it to a wallhanging. I'll get out my calculator.

I think I'd like it bound in gold like the border. Otherwise red.

Thanks for posting the pattern/tute. I like the one in the tute also.

Red or green would be nice but how about combining both colors in the binding (use about 12' of red then 12" of green and so on)?

I would vote for green in your choices here.
However, if you have another Burgundy color binding, it'll also be very nice.

The red is just too much (did I actually say that? red is my hands-down favorite color!). The green is great if binding is one of your best skills...high contrast. The gold is perfect if not...kind of like a busy backing camoflages less than stellar quilting!
