To keep it soft use a pale blue or pink. To make it pop use a dark burgundy or yellow. Please photograph your end result and share :)

I also like the darkest burgandy in the flowers like Mitches Mom suggested.

I to would go with a burgundy. Something you don't have to match. I think another blue would be just to much and leave you wanting.

I think a thin border of dark blue with a wider lighter color, still darker than the blues in the quilt.

Nice pattern, it would look good in my own blue bedroom. You did
a good job on that, love the way it comes together.

I would go with a little darker color to frame the blocks and make them really stand out. WOW would be too washed out for me with those light colors. If your room is blue, I would tend to the blue as well.

I LOVE the blocks and I think that your choice of the blue polka dot is perfect.
