If I had more time, I might put a motif in the aqua squares, but the baby I'm making the quilt for is born and growing fast

And any ideas for a simple way to quilt the border? Preferably with a walking foot. I'll probably stitch in the ditch around the narrow border.

I say, "yes, definitely", the quilt needs more quilting. You could echo the lines around the blocks again, then do the piano keys in the border. You could treat both borders as one. As a quilt Judge I often see quilts that have a minimal amount of quilting. For me, it is hard to find a quilt that has too much quilting on it. Just remember, "the quilting brings the quilt to life"!
