Wow, as much as I say I love purple, i think the blue looks best. Perhaps because the blue piecing goes to the corners.

TEAM BLUE!!! But keep in mind that blue is my very favorite color and I'm not a huge fan of purple. LOL. So basically I'm no help. But that quilt is simply beautiful whichever you decide that's for sure! They both look really great. I think its just a matter of do you like the purple or blue best? If you are more fond of purple then I'd go with that.

sorry to add to your confusion, but I LOVE the way the blue looks on your gorgeous quilt. I think it does way more for the movement of the design than the purple.

Well, currently I am on the Purple Team. It is time to quit pondering this and get on with it....

Surely I can do that soon!

The blue stops the motion, the purple continues it. Both will be beautiful. Is there something you want to match in the room? or is it to be a gift? If so, what colors does that person like? Honestly, you cannot go wrong using either color. Your quilt is just gorgeous!

edited to add: Bargello's are all about movement....I have to vote purple. Keep the movement going.

Both are beautiful but if given choice I would pick the purple, it frames the quilt better.
