What Say You All for my 4-Patch Posy???

This was not a hard pattern, but because of summer activities, etc., I haven't been able to finish quickly. Now I am ready to be DONE. Hence the question, what do I do now? I was determined to follow a pattern for once and not be too taxing on my non-mathematical brain. I bought the focus fabric sometime ago because I loved the vibrant colors and there was barely enough to make the 4-patches. Then I hunted down the coordinating fabrics. I don't have enough focus fabric to go around the borders per the pattern. I am short on the white by about 10 inches. I was thinking I needed a white border to "finish it off" and I actually do remember where I bought that. Do I call it good and bind it with striped fabric? To put stars in the corner, I would really be short on white because they should be set on point to go with the rest of the design. Could I get by making smaller stars or smaller squares? I really need a fresh set of eyes. It is 80 x 90 as it stands now. What say ye? Would it look dorky to leave as is because I don't have enough dark green to do even the binding. (I did change my mind about the coordinates and sometimes just bought enough home to audition.)[ATTACH=CONFIG]558343[/ATTACH]

I don't have any advice as to how to proceed, but it reminds me of a tin of Christmas candy! It "sparkles". Very clever!

I think it looks wonderful as is! If you are happy with the size, I would go ahead and bind it.

I love it and think it's awesome as you have it. The fabric you selected is beautiful.

I'll fall back on something Mr. Rogers always said. "I like you just the way you are."

I love it just the way it is also. I really like the top & bottom stripe border. It's really pretty.
