    I agree with QM. The red dot for another border and solid red for the binding. The quilt is very nice.

    Love the pattern. I can never make small quilts so I'd probably add a red border.

    I personally do not too many boarders I think that it begins to take away from the quilt design, 2 is usually my max for them and usually my inner boarder will be a narrow one with the outer one being wider.
    I think some red on the outside would pull it all together, either another boader in red or the binding in red....

    Exactly what I would have said. Maybe the patterned red for a border with the solid as the binding.
    This is what I was thinking too!

    Splendid quilt! I too would go for the red binding. It's a beauty!
