that boo boo is easily corrected before the quilting is done. i like the purple, but think maybe a smaller border of it and then the other would look nice, or small mottled (green?) and then larger purple

If you have enough of the fabric used for background squares, I would use that since the blocks would float. It can be 1" os so wide. My second choice would be a green. I would put the purple for an outer border. I would bind with the purple as well.

Found the boo boo but not real noticable unless you tell someone. I would put a small purple border, a wider cream border (to make the inner quilt stand out more) then bind in purple. Good luck. It's lovely. KEEP SEWING.

Beautiful, I love the purple. It took me forever to find the boo, boo. I would have to find the seam ripper. I have changed my attitude when it comes to seam rippers. I fall in love with each of my quilts and they have to be as
perfect as possible. It is a me thing. Your quilt is beautiful.........
