Sorry I can't help about the border, but I think that the navy would be fine as a skinny inner border even if it touches the navy on the main part of the quilt.
Either way, I like the effect of the quilt! It's great. Thanks for letting us see it.

I agree with you on the thin border of the cream and then the dark color border. I think that would definitely give you the separation.

I think your quilt is wonderful and I love your fabric choices! IMHO, this would be a great quilt to skip the borders on, unless, as others have said, you need to add size. I too, would bind with the dk. blue and be done.

Thank you to everyone who responded. I love this forum!
I've decided to go with the majority and just finish it off without adding any additional borders and use the dark blue fabric for binding. It will still fit a queen size bed without adding borders so that works for me.
Again, thank you all so much!
