Rainbow dilemma

I love this quilt.
I loved everything about making it and it surprised me all along the way.  I got the idea from a quilt hero of mine Jona&Lili
For reasons I shall explain later, I was in desperate need of pretty ways to use up scraps and ugly fabrics.
Now I think it's too big.
It was supposed to be a baby quilt.  I'm not taking that border off.
I love the 9 patch border.  Plus, I made all those scrappy 9 patches months ago with no idea what I'd do with them.  When I put them next to the spider web blocks - I knew they belonged together.
Perhaps just remove the orange border and use that for the binding?
