I'm laughing at the comments. I do think it needs another border, but you can choose what kind!

I was going to vote no to the second border, but k3n makes a good point about the closeness to the border. So, now I vote yes to the second border. Good luck, I hope it doesn't wear you out too much. I absolutely love this quilt!

That was me too. I was thinking the one border was enough until I keep reading the responses. I think K3n has a point. Beautiful quilt!

Since you asked, I'm with the rest, add the second.

However, I'm with Red too, whatever makes you happy. No rules.

Think about this. If you don't do the second border, will it bug you every single time you look at the quilt?

There's your answer!

And if you don't do the other border because you don't like doing straight bits, instead of because you don't think it needs it, it will bug you even more. :-)
