I agree with quilt mama. I'd do a small black border to finish the quilt, then the larger red (georgeous Asian print).

I've made the BQ before--as well as the fairly new BQ3.

Just needs the black binding.

I like # 1. Floating the main part of the quilt is very elegant. The red makes it look more american traditional.
It is gorgeous!

My personal opinion--I would use black, make it 1/2"-1" wider than the black strips in the quilt itself.

(Isn't it amazing how many different ideas we have? :mrgreen: )

The simple black..it keeps the beauty of an Asian look !!

Beautiful quilt and I like the 2nd picture with the red Asian print with black binding, as it pull the quilt all together.

Beautiful quilt! I like them both! Any chance there is enough black for a thin border and the binding?

I like the black. But you can not go wrong either way! So pretty!
