If it is the size you want then just bind it in the red. If you want it a little bigger, add a solid white border around and then bind in red or add the red border and bind in the dark blue. I really like how the red at the edge really makes the touches of red in the center pop. It is very pretty and I'm sure whatever you decide will be lovely!

I am not savvy about movement but your last picture the blocks jumped out at me. I really like it. Is the jumping out mean movement? I really like the placement in the last pic. By far my favorite. I hope you post the picture of it after you decide on the border(s).

Here's the finished top. Some blocks still go in the "wrong" direction because of the need to join them without the sashing seams lining up, but I'm pleased with it overall.
The sashing fabric is from a Christmas collection at my LQS. The friendly wonderful clerk led me to it knowing I aim at sales and cheaper lines - it was on sale after Christmas for 40% off. The blocks are Moda's Wildflowers - as is the outer border.
