    I agree with others, small boarder of pink and then add the purple. It will look fabulous!

    I agree...a little pink will look great. And it is lots easier to cut some off then to pick out all those sticthes!

    I agree with the others - cut the pink so it's a small border and then add the purple. My first thought was "I like the pink", but then I saw the 2nd & 3rd pics and really liked the purple with just a tad of the pink showing!

    Ditto with these ladies.

    I thought about that...thanks for the feedback - much appreciated!
    I totally agree with leaving a narrow border of the pink then the purple. I would leave the pink about an inch wide. You have made a beautiful quilt.
