I think it looks good. Sometimes it's hard to get nice contrast with monochromatic quilts. This works.

If you're trying to emphasize the striped part, you have the right color, I think, but if it's the squares, it's too dark. The geometric lines are the first thing I saw, if that helps any.

It's definitely a pretty combination.

I agree with Charlotte. Your contrast with the darker blue really makes that color stand out. If that is what you are looking for--great. If not, you may need to choose a softer blue.
