What a beautiful quilt!! When you say a dark purple border - do you mean the same color as your sashing or the color of the darkest purple block? I would either use the sashingcolor or for a twist bind it w/the yellow from the print. Whatever you do - the quilt is gorgeous!

I was thinking of the purple in the sashing if i take of the 4th row of blocks I would have to make the borders bigger, following the lines of the sashings with the purple to finish it
