Working on this quilt for myself. will be for a twin size bed. Can't decide on color for the triangles all around. I was thinking orange what do you think? I think this purple is to dark. (looks blue in picture)

This is really purple

I like the purple. It makes the rest pop. The orange blends too much. Just IMHO.

Personally I like the purple, it really sets off the brightness of the blocks. But also, I'm not a big fan of orange. Both look good so you should pick the one you like best.

Maybe just not This purple I do like the purple and I think I agree that the orange is to matchy matchy and blends in. Need to sew them together but have been working on Christmas stuff lol

Because it is for you you should decide on what to use. :-) Now, that being said.......I really like the way the purple makes the blocks pop. ;) 8-) :-)
