    I like them both.
    Either would look good, but this sounds like a good idea, if you are up to it!

    I like the idea of turquoise, then a wider purple....then maybe bind in turquoise. Love the colours...nice one!

    I think I like the purple....keeps the eye going to the center not edge of the quilt
