I think "open" edges would also be interesting - it takes the eye in a different direction than with "closed" circles -
Either way - It would take an even number of rows to get the outside "the same" all the way around.

I am a fan of piano keys; which would look great here after the "float" border.
I also thought of another layout: putting the new pieces on the left and top, which would create complete circles. I don't know if you would like that. It's your quilt.

Check out the flying geese border Donna Jordan used on her log cabin quilt. I can't wait to make one with it!

I agree, this looks to be a borderless quilt if I ever saw one. Unless you used a solid strip to frame it, in my opinion, anything more would be gilding the lily.

Personally I like it the way it is if you want it bigger just add more blocks and maybe a colored binding. Also I would like the pattern can you tell me what it is and maybe where to get it. Many thanks
