    I think it is very pretty and "soft" but I like pretty and "soft." I think a dark purple border followed by a light border would be stunning!

    It's beautiful!!! I find it refreshing, to see quilts that don't "pop" one into a migraine! I LOVE your colors together!!!

    I like it. I also agree with everyone else about the darker border. Don't ever let anyone tell you what you like. Go with your heart, it knows best.

    I like it very much, and I bet "in person" it has even a slight bit more contrast. Go for it, and possibly consider the narrow dark purple border idea when you see what it looks like shrunk down from sewing.

    I think it's lovely but if you have a touch of "need to spice it up " use boldly colored thread to quilt a design on it!!! Soft is good
