I like both. The purple is more vibrant, the yellow more relaxing.. so it depends on what you are looking for.

Purple would give an entirely different look. It's more what you like best as both are great.

Purple is it in my opinion.

I'm curious to see an EQ design using both the purple block and the yellow block in one quilt top, as described by a previous quilter.

I agree with QuiltnNan's discription, the yellow background really makes the stars pop and the framing with purple! Yum, it is going to be a real looker!

The purple... the yellow is pretty but just it washes every thing out. I also like Dragonmine's suggestion

I saw the drawing of QuiltnNan and I love it so that's my vote. I think the deep purple has to be the focal point.

I like QuiltnNan's suggestion of the three borders, and I would bind it in the purple.
