    need your opinion

    I making a quilt with batik fat quarters. The blocks are made my problem is the sashing. I have a blue batik and a plain black (not batik) Don't don't want to buy material is I don't really have to. Will either of these work and if so, which one. Thanks for your help.

    I agree the block is perfect. Also a neutral grey or white would work as well.

    Hmmmm, normally i love black but the blue batik seems to go with the batiks better. But either would work. your decision.

    Margie, since you are asking ... I like the look of the blue, it seems to make the blocks sparkle.

    Actually, both would work, but, I seem to like the blue also.

    I say black because if you have any blue blocks they will get lost in the sash. I like the blue however. It looks great. Maybe use it for the backing?
    when life gets you down go and talk with a little kid. They will help you work out even the worst problems with their simple logic.
