I like #1, but I would make it narrower than 2" - maybe 1/2-1/4".

I like #1 the best...gives a warmer look to the quilt.

I like them both. The first seems to make the quilt brighter while the second seems to subdue it a bit. But both are pleasing to my eye.

That is a tough decision. What a beautiful quilt! I would choose #2 if it was my quilt, because the blue is more muted and doesn't draw my eye away from the pieced top. It seems to accent rather than distract. Good luck making a choice, it will come out wonderful either way.

In the pix, the brown border seems to blend somewhat with the brown that's in the quilt, whereas the teal border does not blend with the teal in the quilt; if he pix are not misleading, I would choose the 2nd one.
