    Because the quilts are already at the size she requested (60"), I would simply bind the quilts with one of the bright colors from the quilts.

    I think it would be a clean look to make a narrow white border then a grey border to enhance what you have in the middle.

    Yes, I think I'd put a border on these. They're adorable, and the color combinations are very nice.

    For me, I would put a border on it to showcase the lovely fabrics.

    It needs a border to tie all the squares on the outside together!
