    Default opinions please

    Is this too much for the eyes? Should I add sashings or plain blocks? If so what color/colors?
    Thanks so much for looking and any/all comments. PS ...The circles are offset on purpose

    Since you seem to have a strip of black in most of them I would sash it in black. A multly bright could be used as a border.

    bright and cheerful ... with a modern touch! I think I would put it together without sashing, just as it is and a small border of one of the colors in the quilt .... and bound in a modern print complimenting the border. Those blocks are outstanding!

    it would look fine without sashing, but i think the suggested black sashing would set the blocks off nicely

    I think the black sashing suggested would also highlight that the circles are offset and would make them bounce. Great quilt!

    hugs,

    Yep black sashing for me too. Really nice pattern. Very modern and eye-catching.

    Definitely black sashing. That will add to the modern feeling of the quilt.
