Love, love, love your quilt! I am definitely a Purple Pash person - I'm even driving my second purple car! Purple is the ultimate feel-good color. I find myself buying lots and lots of purple and other jewel tones - mostly darker values, with some mediums thrown in - find it difficult to buy lights and neutrals - there isn't a neutral bone in my body! When I wanted to do the circle quilt that is my avatar, did a shop hop in CT over two weekends and had to restrict myself to just getting the palest batiks for the background squares. It was tough, but now I have enough of all the batiks (including oodles of purples, greens and blues - very watery-feeling!) to make a quilt for myself ... it will be a first since all my quilts have been made for specific happy occasions, i.e. baby showers, etc.
