Thanks NJ. I'm going to redo the headboard to a solid white and painting the walls a medium gray. I think you are right. A solid 5 or 6" border just on the sides. Less sewing and fuss and no distraction. This has been on my design wall and in the sewing process for 9 months so I am anxious to finish it and get it off to the LAQ so I can get the room finished.
