If you can find more of that light fabric, it's in the top/left block between the two greens. Make a skinny border with that then a wide border in that brown to make it the size that you need. If it is already the size you need then I agree with QuiltnNan and bind it in the same brown.

I had asked a while ago to border or not I just want to up date the final quilt I praticed my FMQ so it is a little uneven in my spirls but it got better as I went along
I made the top this weekend using 2 jelly rolls from Joann's they are smaller only 20 in each roll so I had to buy 2 at first I was going to,do a jelly roll,race but changed my mind then I thought do a friendship braid but ended up making these blocks and framed it In.brown, I bought some material to border it but not to sure if I like the color, so my question is should I NOT border it, use what I have or go looking for a better color material that I feel matches better.

Patti - I really like the quilt - it looks great! I personally love borders because I think of them as a frame - so I would put a border on it. I would go simple and if you have enough of the brown, bind it with that.
