My preference is for the dark blue (sashing) fabric.

I like the dark blue, personally.

My thoughts on binding are if you do it well you can use any color you like. If your bindings are wavy, match the border and no one will notice. I'm finally getting to the "use anything" stage and I like the variety it allows.

I would choose the yellow fabric that is in the quilt for a binding. The blue is nice but really blends in too much for me. Just my opinion. The quilt is very nice.

The dark blue finishes the quilt best IMHO.
