I think it needs another border, a wider one than the last one. It looks a bit unfinished otherwise to my eyes.
Furthermore, I also think that your husband is right (sounds like a good one, you should definitely keep him!
) to go with the cream. I think it would look absolutely stunning if you added a border pieced with the same fabrics used in the middle, cut to the same size of squares, about 4 rows wide.
P.S: Nice nail polish BTW!
