Maybe it was a spacing issue if tile goes all the way up? The best thing is to avoid weird or odd tile cuts. Large tile looks so nice, would be a shame if it had an odd size cut in order to accommodate 3 rows of the decorative band. Small infill decorative bands usually serve the purpose of making the large format tile remain in whole pieces. It's the smaller, mosaic, infill tiles that "take up the slack in space" to avoid weird cuts. make sense? Line is a line. Might not make much difference from 2 to 3 rows based on what I can see here. Avoid perfectionism.... That will kick your butt! Shoot for excellence instead. No room is perfect if the truth be told! I think it looks pretty darn good so far....
