Oh, Emma, It's beautiful! I see what you mean about the green and I hope you find a reason to put it on, mainly because I want to see more. It's hard to believe we started these in January. It's really been the year of the medallion for me and I would like to finish mine this year.

AnngelAnne, I have no problem with you using the border, but I just did it on graph paper, although I'm sure others have also done it. I did a single ribbon on the "Chair of Bowlies" quilt and thought there was a lot of white space that could be filled in. That quilt used three 3 in blocks. All the blocks are half square triangle. The peacock one used three 2 in blocks. My only advice is do not use directional fabric. It may not look like it, but one of the fabrics in the peacock is directional and it was a pain to make sure it was always going in the correct direction.
