Thank you all for your ideas and input. I will head to the fabric store and audition the colors you have suggested.
This board is the best!

I think it looks good the way it is. Another possibility could be to cover an artist canvas in fabric of your choice and "float" your art quilt onto that. Finished, mounted, ready to display by hanger or easel! I really like your work!

I agree with Tartan...but lean more towards a facing edge. It is a beautiful quilt and I think adding any more will distract from what you have already done

I love the quilt! I would probable use a cream border with a pink binding.

I really love your wonky houses. Your art quilt is very attractive. I finished one last week for a challenge with my quilt guild. I made the border and binding of the same fabric as the background of the basic design. I really liked the effect and I received several positive comments on my choices.

I wouldn't bind it nor add a border. I'd use a facing. That way the edge of your art quilt goes all the way to the edge with no distraction. I've faced wall hangings and really like the effect. If you google how to face a quilt there are some good tutorials. Here's a link to one with pictures. http://thesillyboodilly.blogspot.com...y-to-face.html

I would be hesitant to put a border on it because you have quilted it and it is not laying flat. I would just bind it. Very cute quilt. Can you tell us where you bought this pattern??

I have seen some art quilts that have been faced. They have no visible border.

I love this board, too...... so many ideas and suggestions. The problem is that there are so many to choose from.

It sounds like you've decided what you would like to do but I'll add my 2 cents worth. I'd add a border. And I'd pick whatever color I wanted to bring out in the houses. If you have this in a pink room, I'd choose pink. If you want the green to 'pop', I'd pick green. The blue background color would disappear if you chose that.

The binding could look like a frame if you pick a different color but a very skinny frame. I think I'd use the same fabric that I'd pick for the border. Then it's just one larger frame. Plus, it doesn't have to be super perfect width wise.

It's really a cute quilt. You did a fantastic job.

Whatever you decide will be great. Love those wonky houses. Please share pattern. Thanks.
