Follow your instincts. Look through your stash and see if you have a print or prints that would help bring everything together. then modify the quilt with the print. By modify, I mean if you really don't like to rip out, cut down the big plain strips of the white and gold to be like a sashing of maybe two inches, and put the print(s) in between. If you have more than one print that will work and you like how they play off each other and the stars, use them alternately or choose one print to switch out the white and the other to switch out the gold. this would give it a scrappy look like the stars.
Good Luck! you can do it and make it pretty. I know it.
