    This would be my choice for borders as well.
    Great job!
    this sounds good

    I think a border is needed. The eye follows the lines and just goes off the quilt without a border.

    Just my opinion, I thing a border/borders frames a quilt and makes it look really finished. Please yourself.

    It is beautiful. Great job.
