My comment is that if you are trying to have a pattern with your "rail fence" type blocks, I would review that. What I see is that most of the layout is in a repetitive pattern with only a few squares not in compliance. If you are going for a random look, perhaps I am seeing order where none was intended.
What I see is that in the first row, the split blocks go "="=, and in the next row, they are opposite ="=". This results in the blocks going in a diagonal from top to bottom across the quilt. The few blocks that are not in this pattern would bother me, since most of the layout follows it.
To correct it and have the diagonals in order, the following blocks would need to be turned 1/4 turn: 3rd row, block 1; 5th row, blocks 1 and 3; 6th row, block 2; 7th row, blocks 1 and 3; 8th row, block 2 and the last one on the row.
Now of course, if this is not what you were going for, and I am way out of line, lol, just ignore all that and mix them up any way you like. As others have said, the main thing is that it's your quilt and what matters most is that you are happy with it.
Your colors are fabulous and I think you can't go wrong in choosing any for borders. I like the ideas given of a narrow than a wider but a single would also work. It's going to be a beautiful quilt when you finish!!!!
Just wanted to add, I find my most helpful tool to be a photo that I can look at on the computer and am always amazed at how those little things stand out for me there that I can't seem to see on the design wall.
