Moira in N.E. England

I have cut up the blocks from a panel for a child’s quilt. I’ve sewn the first few together with a sashing but I’m not liking the way it looks. (1st photo). Now I’m thinking each block needs a border to frame it - what do you think (2nd photo) or is there something else I can do?
