I think you need to audition each choice and see which you prefer. They all have their merits, but seeing it is the best way to make a choice. That being said, there is something to be said for darker fabrics that don't show every spot. Especially if you have pets.
That is one beautiful top!! I can't wait to see what you do with it! Great job!

Thinking that you should send it to me so I can have a closer look at it. If I get inspired maybe I will finish it for you and try it out on my bed, LOL. Oh and maybe by then I will have lost your address, darn it!
That is stunning! Love the colors and the balance and EVERYTHING! My address is...........

Thank you everyone for all your ideas and kind works... still stumped :cry: As someone stated by adding all cream it would make it look like I am just trying to make it larger... do not want that look... I may take the border off and extend the blocks... and then end it with the border... another thought...
this one is just drivng me crazy,,, lol

Here is my two cents: think you should remove the corner blocks in your border, replace them with smaller versions of your stars, then add a border of your paisley fabric then you can finish with the cream, and binding with the paisley fabric to tie it all together.
