    Nice quilt.
    I would give it another row of the plaid so your on-point blocks are framed. Maybe a bit narrower than the other plaid border row.

    I agree. The plaid would look great. It really is a pretty quilt. Great job.

    Terrific job on this quilt. Perhaps a plaid binding would be enough. Is the quilt large enough as it is. If not, I'd add another row of blue to "stop" the quilt. It's your quilt. No matter what you do with it, it will be wonderful.

    I would add another plaid border also (narrower) and then bind with the dark blue.
