    This is a gorgeous quilt already!

    I really like Quiltilicious' idea to continue the squares on either end to get the length.

    Then I would suggest a narrow gold/yellow border to match the center and a wider border of either the pink or the purple, depending on which you want to emphasize most.

    I don't know if I can explain this, but I'll try. I would duplicate the lower middle and top middle on-point "block, then use the pink polk a dot fabric on either side ending with a purple and yellow four patch or half square triangle under the pink end blocks. If the center portion needed to be wider, just add a contrasting color to the bottom to make it the width you need.
