Opinons please on sashing and borders
A few years ago I put together the blocks for Sylvia's Bridal Sampler quilt. The blocks are attached in long rows using white sashing between the blocks. Now I'm wondering if a color sashing should be used instead. Do the blocks look too washed out with the white background and sashing? What do you suggest for sashing & border color? I really would like to get this top done (notice I didn't say quilt, haha) but don't quite know what to do at this point. Thank you for your suggestions.

If you google Sylvia's Bridal Sampler Quilt then click images and look at all the quilts that are shown, you will see all sorts of possibilities for slashing and borders. I think it is helpful to see the finished quilt, then it is easier to decide which you prefer. Beautiful blocks. I like the colors you have chosen. I am sure your finished quilt will be a work of art.

Here's a link to the google search result for different images of the quilt, with and without sashings:
