The mauve was probably from the 90s, when we were using country blue and mauve. As you can see from the bottom picture, I didn't want the background of the blocks to be too bright so I used the wrong side. (I use wrong side a lot.) This will go to the charity I sew for, and did not add side and top borders because would have put it bigger than the maximum size they want to work with, 40" x 56". Thanks for looking.
