Very nice quilt, and I admire you using 1 1/4" strips, as they can sometimes be difficult, but you did a great job. Personally I would use a green or a brown from one of your blocks that would frame the quilt. I made a log cabin quilt for a friend and used a brown border, although the original pattern had no border. It now hangs in a place of honor from her second floor railing beside her stone fireplace in her log cabin home in TN.
