Default GFG borders

I am going to make a miniature GFG quilt for a dollhouse, and I really want to not square off the borders - I want the borders to showcase the hexagons of the quilt.

Any ideas? Also, how should I do the backing?

Having ZERO experience at this, here are my thoughts:

Make the front as usual.

Back - have a rectangle piece of fabric, and do half hexagons via english paper piece, and sew them to the borders of the rectangle fabric to match the size of the front, then whipstitch them together inside out and birth the quilt to finish.

Any ideas? I'm flying blind here...

Thanks.
