I like the purple as it will bring out the purple flowers more. It already has enough orange. Really pretty quilt!

I agree with this, too much orange already, not the blue but, the purple works well

blue if you want a soft look and purple to accent.

I like the purple, but I would put it on either side of the edges, not straight down the middle! JMHO!!!! Edie

You could duplicate the blocks on the front of the quilt and use them in a row down the center of of the backing???
