these are suggestions for future quilts since you have already decided to not change this one.
you didn't mention whether or not you used a walking foot.
if you didn't, i highly recommend you use one for future borders.
they are also very helpful when attaching binding.
i never cut my border strips across the width of the fabric. (weft/woof)
i cut up the length of the fabric. (warp)
this will sometimes mean additional piecing to get borders the length i need, but it's well worth the effort.
the woof/weft stretches.
the warp does not.
little saying to help me remember:
the fabric's warp will not [warp].
