I honestly like your quilt! It looks very close to being done. I have had the same experience. What I did was to put it away for awhile, get something else to work on, then after several monts, get it out and work on it again.
Our Guild stresses that when we get to certain points on our work, just to put it away and leave it. It has worked for me.
Good luck, and don't be too hard on yourself. I really like it! If it is borders you need, I would use some lighter colors to tone it down some, then end with a dark again. I have been told to use darker colors on ending borders, as our eye can see the end then, moreso than with a lighter color.
I made a Patriotic Wall Haning before I knew much about quilting, and didn't know that last fact. I ended it with White, and wished later I had done the dark. So, I took it apart and improved the borders with a dark and some tying, and like it really well.
It is easy to get "stressed out" with Quilting.
