Default How to minimize shifting while quilting on a longarm

I'm making a wall hanging quilt for a customer; it's the Splash quilt from Jaybird quilt. Here's a pic of the finished top. My customer wants a very detailed quilting. I will use my longarm. However, I don't know how to deal with the special border of this quilt. Usually, I don't bother that much about shifting; I simply add about 2 inches all around and then square the quilt. But I can't do that with this one. Is there a way to minimize the shifting? Should I add another row on the side? Should I quilt it with my DSM? I'm still a beginner on my longarm (got it 2 years ago), so any advice from more experimented quilter will be most welcome!
