Excuse the piecing, after I started cutting the strips I learned about starch. Some are "off", some are ok.

Anyway, I need thoughts on the outside border choice, either the greenish or the purplish.

I'm a huge purple fan but, I really like the green as the boarder!

I would piece the border, use strips of each.

I like the green too. The dark of the print enhances the quilt better than I think the purple does.

They both would work fine...I like the contrast of the small purple next to that green one.

I don't see anything wrong with your strips. The quilt top is just wonderful
