I would use the orange as a binding, however, but either the orange or the purple would be good for binding.

Me, too.

Beautiful! Orange binding but no orange border - does take away from quilt. Nice work - love the colors!

Orange is my favorite color but in this case I vote no orange border. In fact I wouldn't use orange binding either, I'd bind it in purple.

Is purple or orange going to be your primary color? If it is purple I would go with orange binding. If it is orange then I would go with purple binding. Love your quilt as is :-)
