I would maybe add a 1" blue, then white and then another 1" blue. You could do some really beautiful quilting in the white border in between the 2 blue 1" borders. Your compass is absolutely amazing.

I love the white Elle. Gosh the blocks are all so beautiful. I like CajinQuilter's suggestion, use a blue border around the center block. I like the color Mgshaw used in her quilt. I think the darker blue would look great and not detract in any way.

OR do I edge each block in blue and then sew them together
I would be grateful for your suggestions.
