Borders Needed?
#11
I love your quilt!! Love the bright, cheerful feel of it. I’d prob’ly add the light solid color down the left side and across the bottom and bind it with a bright solid. And let it tell it’s own cheerful tale ;0) !

I'm joining the chorus for a narrow white border. As a personal opinion. quilts without borders look unfinished.
And I'm OCD enough that I'd fix that corner. Last week I did just that -- ripped out and fixed a corner turned 90 degrees. Why that didn't get fixed earlier I have no idea, but it would have been a lot easier if it hadn't already been basted for quilting!

You know you don't have to put your borders on all 4 sides. A border of white around the whole quilt to separate the quilt center from the pieced border. Then a pieced border (like the narrow piecing of the blocks), but this border only on the top and bottom. After that another narrow white border on the top and bottom to separate the pieced border from a strong colored binding.
