I love the blocks, sashing colors, and yes, the border! It would be just what a lady pulling from her scrap bag would use, and is unifying and gorgeous with your corner stars! I bet when it is quilted and you are nestled down on the couch doing the binding...it will have grown on you!

The border is more traditional than your scrappy borders. I think it's stunning. I didn't think pink and blue '80'.
