    I vote for white. After all is said and done, it is your quilt and I am sure you will whatever pleases you.

    Beautiful quilt.

    I like black but any of the other colors would look great. Wonderful quilt.

    I like a white binding--makes the colored block really float off the background. But I don't think all quilts need to be "framed" either with a border or the binding.

    Boy, the color on binding doesn't matter to me, I just love looking at your perfect stitching those quilt pieces'
    together. The points on all of them are so gorgeously done.

    I like black on a lot of quilts, but I think White for this one, and let the brights stand on their own. I think the black might draw ones eyes away from the design.

    I would go with one of the colors already in the quilt and not bring in another color. White would be fine but so would any of the other colors. IMHO, I would skip the gray and use the red, blue, yellow or white. Post a photo of your final choice. It is fun for use viewers to see how our 2 cents of opinion turns into a million buck beauty.

    If you want to tone it down, I would use yellow or grey. If you want it to pop out use one of the brighter colors. Looks good.
