Or I could use a dark purple batik instead of the black since there is no black in the body of the quilt.
Yes, that's my first inclination too, and the dark purple border is beautiful! But if you're still considering black, I've done a couple of quilts that needed a dark sashing or inner border and black would have seemed to be the logical choice. But I used a charcoal grey instead of black and it was softened enough to not be so jarring and absolute

I like the black inner border. It seems to frame the quilt. Great work!

Dark purple would be an excellent choice for that inner border.
