    I really 'love' the quilt just the way you have it.
    I don't usually suggest, but if I had one like that, I think I would use some red to make it 'pop' then add black binding.

    I'd use a light blue light weight chambray for the back instead of real denim. I agree, I hink it has enough of a border already, but if you add a border, definitely bind in black - it's worth an Oscar!!

    I would use black, I think the colors would detract from the quilt itself. I love it your pattern!

    Hmmm I am thinking if you have any or enough of the yellow with the stars, it would make a bright border and make him think he is a Star film maker! :)

    I love the quilt just the way it is. Is that pattern called Slideshow?

    What a great quilt. Your son will be thrilled with it. Awesome design, just like a big reel of film.

    Beautiful! I would add black border and binding. Gives you the extra size, but doesn't take attention away from what you've already done.

    :) You could use your bright green and pink or yellow to border it. It is a beautiful quilt :D

    I'd leave it as-is and then put a rockin' binding on it.
