Its your kitchen , your tiles . If you are happy with the look .

But it might not suit everyone.

usually the borders should match the tile size. but its your kitchen.
if youre selling up in the next few yrs you might want to get the correct size.

Your kitchen, do what you want. It is probably true to say that having the same width for both generally looks better. I doubt that it would be a deal breaker if a prospective buyer did not like the arrangement.
