This quilt has numerous colors and can be used in virtually any color bedroom, but the dark purple would not go in a red or dark blue room, for example.
Also, did you know that you can turn off the grid so you just see the quilt without all the lines? Just Google "turning off the grid in ---------" ( Fill blank with the particular program you used, such as EQ, Excel, Word, or Bernina Quilting software)
I too think the colors of the borders you've shown are too intense. All my eyes go to are the magenta border and the dark purpley blue outer border. Have you tried any other colors from within the blocks, for borders? Also thinking about the room this will live in and what it's colors are are something to consider.
