Add this border or just bind first gift baby quilt
[ATTACH=CONFIG]519527[/ATTACH]Should I use this border before binding in a bright or just leave off? This is my first quilt to gift anyone so I am second guessing myself a lot. Thank you for reading.

I like the border because I think it gives your quilt design a more finished look. Many quilt designs are great borderless, but with this design I like how the border extends the background- and a bright or dark binding will give it that "finished just right" look!

I'm voting with everyone else. I like the border effect. Borders are about stopping the movement and calming the quilt. The pieced one you are showing in the neutral paler colors is just perfect for this quilt.
