Yes, a border will finish the quilt nicely!

I'd go a bit different - I'd do 3 smaller borders (maybe 2 1/2" finished) of red, then white, then blue -- a patriotic border would be more in keeping with your center block. Love your quilt!

Your quilt is very pretty! I say a definite yes for a border, maybe even two borders. One narrow and one a little wider.
