I think your beautiful quilt and all the little HST pinwheels within pinwheels within one huge pinwheel speaks for itself. IMO non of the borders work very well. Something simple, maybe light and dark narrow solids, would showcase this beauty! WOW. For an old UFO this is really a cool quilt.

I admire your stick to it attitude and made success happen. I like your pinwheel pattern. I think the simple purple border (maybe a bit smaller) would be nice. I like the braid (?) trim. I have redone a few things in my quilting life and I have always been glad I did.

I love the way you laid out the quilt so that the smaller pinwheels make the giant one. Very clever! I don't think you really need a border on the quilt, just a nicely coordinated binding. However, I do like Tothill's suggestion (if you do a solid border) of putting a small pinwheel in each corner. Please show us your finished quilt once you decide.
