    I'd put a red border on it, but that's me. Your quilt is gorgeous and you don't want the border to detract from the beauty of the blocks so I think a thin border of red would do the job.

    You could just draw a wavy line in the center of the border, applique it and then alternate leaves on either side of the vine.

    I was going to suggest the same thing. Leaves on the opposite end for symmetry. It's a gorgeous quilt. So much time and hard work and variety. Kudoes to you. I'm also thinking it needs a wide red border to frame it.
