    I don't like borders but agree that one would pull
    It together

    Beautiful. I think a border would set it off nicely.

    I border everything... it ties everything together.

    I find it hard to not put borders on quilts, but sometimes they don't want them. In this case, though, I think the beautiful mariner's compass blocks are visually weighty and a border would balance them nicely.

    Beautiful quilt but I agree it needs a border.

    Wow, your quilt is amazing! I think I would add a border to tie it all together.
