The blue Just Because quilt is my favourite of the three and I must confess I prefer the top border over the bottom one, because the contrast in size works for me - meaning, big centre, small blocks on the top border pleases my sense of symmetry. I'd leave it just as it is, and I think Lucymae's suggestion of a red border is worth considering.

Nice work on all three! I agree, I would change the blue and white. What about taking out one of the upper blocks, adding white sashing b/t the three remaining, and adding your blue border as seen below? Maybe that would feel more complete and symmetrical? Just an idea.

Such nice, nice, work, Alice! Fish quilt is neat - sure hope Cooper grows up loving to fish! IMHO, a darker brown and darker green border strips would really set it off.
LOVE the blue/white quilt. I prefer the bottom border.
Can't wait see everyone next Friday! :)
