Yes I liked the purple too...it is not KT, but matched color wise. It was funny at the retreat Lois (Lynne's friend and quilt piecer) was look at my blocks and right away pointed out a couple that weren't KT. I said "I know, but I really wanted that color (the light teal I am using as accent) and there weren't enough purples to choose from so had to add a little non-KT." She was just giving me a hard time...very nice lady!!
