I have about got this top finished, and I think it will have a plain muslin backing, off white. I auditioned a border of dark blue, and then one of the more medium blue. I liked the medium blue better. I have a green fabric that would look good too, but I don't like the green that much. Currently I am just going to leave the four strips as the four borders and be done with it. We'll see what I actually end up deciding.

Let me add a picture of where I am now. (Got to take it first.) I just added the green top and bottom border strip, and have the two green sides to go, and then the darker blue around the whole thing.
