My bedroom walls have a cobalt blue in a batik look.
I will appreciate suggestions!

Beautiful colors. I think that White would be your best bet and seem to tie it altogether. You might audition a very very pale mint green, or possibly a very light almost white yellow and see what that would do. That's looking good there.

I think what you have done is stunning, and the color choices are fabulous. What is the name of the quilt pattern? String quilt? I am not good with abreviations. I agree that the blue in the polkadots, the pink, or white. I am afraid too dark a color will overtake the whole beautiful block. You want the wuilt to stand out not the framing. It is just beautiful.
