    Both are beautiful. Sashing really makes it pop and I love the bright colors. A border would be wonderful as well and I would pick something that has the gift receivers favorite color. Nice work. Thank you for sharing.

    I like it both ways. No idea about the border. Maybe just audition fabrics until you find one that plays well with the rest of the quilt.

    I like it without the sashing, but if you do use a sashing I'd pick a different fabric than the one that you have in the pic. I do like the blue as was suggested.

    I like the quilt without sashing. The pattern flows through the quilt and your colors float on top of the background. With the sashing tHe pattern is locked into the small space and the sashing seems the dominate focus of the quilt. Just my opinion.

    I like the sashing - the blocks just popped for me in the 2nd photo

    I like the way the blocks and fabric blend in the no sashing choice. Make a small inner border in a brighter color she likes and then another outer border from one of the fabrics in your quilt. Love it!!!
