Given the beautiful colors you've used, you don't need to add any movement in your borders....just my two cents worth...

Great looking Autumn colors. I think an olive green border would look GREAT! If you have that color, I would make it about a 5" border. If not, I would try for a soft brown tone on tone.You did a nice job on this. I love the turning twenty pattern.

I seldom pick out the border before I finish the top. I have bought fabrics I thought would be perfect but did not look right after the top was put together.
I think a brown and green or rust would look great, it is a beautiful quilt.
